Be Daring Enough To Be Different, Humble

Letting Ourselves Be Loved By God Is More Important Than Loving God.

God Is Loving Us - You And Me - This Moment, Just As We Are And Not As We Should Be.

Jesus Reveals A God Who Does Not Demand But Who Gives; Who Does Not Oppress But Who Raises Up; Who Does Not Wound But Who Heals; Who Does Not Condemn But Forgives.

The Trouble With Our Ideals Is That If We Live Up To All Of Them, We Become Impossible To Live With.

For Those Who Feel Their Lives Are A Grave Disappointment To God, It Requires Enormous Trust And Reckless, Raging Confidence To Accept That The Love Of Jesus Christ Knows No Shadow Of Alteration Or Change. When Jesus Said, "come To Me, All You Who Labor And Are Heavy Burdened," He Assumed We Would Grow Weary, Discouraged, And Disheartened Along The Way. These Words Are A Touching Testimony To The Genuine Humanness Of Jesus. He Had No Romantic Notion Of The Cost Of Discipleship. He Knew That Following Him Was As Unsentimental As Duty, As Demanding As Love.
