“When we’re inspired to “do something spiritual,” it’s natural to skip to the second part—living differently. We try to remember to pray more. We try to remember to read the Bible more. We read more books. We listen to more podcasts. We try to remember to tell people about Christ and what He’s doing for us. We have forgotten Jesus’ words: “Apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:5). Instead, we’ve accepted this American “Christianity” that boasts, “The Lord helps those who help themselves.” Again, the difference between dependence and independence.”
Megan Fate Marshman, Relaxed: Walking with the One Who Is Not Worried about a Thing

“it too. We become more forgiving as we receive His forgiveness. And as we find Him in every situation and circumstance of our lives, we can relax. We don’t have to hide anything because nothing is hidden from His view. And knowing us, He loves us. Our awareness of His love will transform our lives as we come to grips with the fact that His love has never been dependent on our good behavior. That’s awe-inspiring and humbling. Now we’re getting wiser.”
Megan Fate Marshman, Relaxed: Walking with the One Who Is Not Worried about a Thing

“Let me ask you this question: Have you let yourself feel the pain? Because grief is a door into something I know God wants for you: Himself. He’s the reward. Not heaven but Him.”

“After all, where did those of us who know Jesus get the idea that we were going to have a straight and easy path all the way to heaven? It’s a wild ride all the way home.”
Jennie Allen, Untangle Your Emotions: Naming What You Feel and Knowing What to Do About It

“Randy’s death has led all of us into this new depth of longing for heaven and longing for Jesus, this realization that yes, one day, we too will die. I’ve found gratitude in that house of mourning, a kind of gratitude I hadn’t realized existed. But don’t get me wrong, I still hate being there.”
