C.S. Lewis
“It is no use to ask God with factitious earnestness for A when our whole mind is in reality filled with the desire for B. We must lay before Him what is in us, not what ought to be in us.”
C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer

LaTasha Morrison
“To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.”
LaTasha Morrison, Be the Bridge: Pursuing God's Heart for Racial Reconciliation

Philip Yancey
“For years I had thought of the Sermon on the Mount as a blueprint for human behavior that no one could possibly follow. Reading it again, I found that Jesus gave these words not to cumber us, but to tell us what God is like. The character of God is the urtext of the Sermon on the Mount. Why should we love our enemies? Because our clement Father causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good. Why be perfect? Because God is perfect. Why store up treasures in heaven? Because the Father lives there and will lavishly reward us. Why live without fear and worry? Because the same God who clothes the lilies and the grass of the field has promised to take care of us. Why pray? If an earthly father gives his son bread or fish, how much more will the Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him.”
Philip Yancey, The Jesus I Never Knew
