Status Updates From Anxious about Decisions: Fi...

"Sometimes we believers can get too spiritual for our own good, that we can so quickly accept a posture of surrender that we don't experience ourselves as having wants and hurts."

"When we stop being ourselves with God, we are no longer in real conversation with God."
