“He’s quite lovely. But...a tad inflexible in his views. Life doesn’t flow in such rigid lines, my dear, as much as we might like it to.”
If only more people realised this was true. Life isn't rigid and you have to be flexible in your beliefs or you will aleays be angry at everyone and everything.

“As you ascertain the validity of the call you believe God is placing on your life, search your heart for any sinful motivation, any thoughts of power, greed, or pride. If you find it, repent and get humble again before Jesus, because his call won’t involve manipulation. His Call Will Involve the Desire of Your Heart”

“Many of us are living contradictions. I’ve done some empirical probing in my own life and have determined this to be true. We want God to speak to us, but we’re petrified he’ll call us to something uncomfortable, or difficult, or worse . . . something uncool.”

“If you are trying to figure out if something is God’s call on your life, ask these questions: Who would this be helping? What good is it?”

“I know too many people who muck around in the haze of being near God but never really embracing the new, wonderful, incredible, blessed life that God has for them. We have all lived in the haze from time to time. I know I have. This is the essence of our mess. And the challenge is to invite Jesus into the midst of your mess. Jesus died for your salvation in the afterlife, and you have a place in heaven for all of eternity. But Jesus also died for your freedom now.”
