D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
“If you were to feel more interest in Christ you would be less interested in yourself.”
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Cures

“But lament is different. The practice of lament—the kind that is biblical, honest, and redemptive—is not as natural for us, because every lament is a prayer. A statement of faith. Lament is the honest cry of a hurting heart wrestling with the paradox of pain and the promise of God’s goodness.”
Mark Vroegop, Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy: Discovering the Grace of Lament

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
“Have you realized that most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself?”
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Cures

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
“Our danger is to submit ourselves to our feelings and to allow them to dictate to us, to govern and to master us and to control the whole of our lives.”
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Cures

“Prayerful lament is better than silence. However, I've found that many people are afraid of lament. They find it too honest, too open, or too risky. But there's something far worse: silent despair. Giving God the silent treatment is the ultimate manifestation of unbelief. Despair lives under the hopeless resignation that God doesn't care, he doesn't hear, and nothing is ever going to change. People who believe this stop praying, they give up. This silence is a soul killer.”
Mark Vroegop, Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy: Discovering the Grace of Lament
