C.S. Lewis
“You must ask for God's help. Even when you have done so, it may seem to you for a long time that no help, or less help than you need, is being given. Never mind. After each failure, ask forgiveness, pick yourself up, and try again. Very often what God first helps us towards is not the virtue itself but just this power of always trying again.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Never laugh at live dragons, Bilbo you fool!' he said to himself, and it became a favourite saying of his later, and passed into a proverb. 'You aren't nearly through this adventure yet,' he added, and that was pretty true as well.”
J. R. R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, or There and Back Again

Jen Hatmaker
“It is no wonder humanity has long preferred legalism, which involves much cleaner territory. Give me a rule any day. Give me a clear “in” and “out” because boundaries make me feel safe. If I can clearly mark the borders, then I am assured of my insider status—the position I feel compelled to defend, the one thing I can be sure of. I want to stand before God having gotten it right.”
Jen Hatmaker, For the Love: Fighting for Grace in a World of Impossible Standards

Jen Hatmaker
“Hard worker, punching the clock and paying the bills, you can live a life worthy this day. Your career may not involve “Christian-sanctioned” labor, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t walking in your calling. The manner in which you speak to your coworkers, the way you work diligently, your dignity as a laborer worth her wages—this is a worthy life. Every goodness God asked us to display is available to you today. Through ordinary work, people can be set free, valued, and changed, including yourself. God’s kingdom will not come in any more power elsewhere than it will come in your life today.”
Jen Hatmaker, For the Love: Fighting for Grace in a World of Impossible Standards

“If it isn’t also true for a poor single Christian mom in Haiti, it isn’t true.”

New Year's resolutions are rarely acted on. I'm guilty of it, and you're guilty of it. The trick is to have support, which is exactly what #Read26Indy ...more
