We Make A God Out Of Whatever

The Deepest Need That You And I Have In Weakness And Adversity Is Not Quick Relief, But The Well-grounded Confidence That What Is Happening To Us Is Part Of The Greatest Purpose Of God In The Universe - The Glorification Of The Grace And Power Of His Son - The Grace And Power That Bore Him To The Cross And Kept Him There Until The Work Of Love Was Done.

If The Pursuit Of God's Glory Is Not Ordered Above The Pursuit Of Man's Good In The Affections Of The Heart And The Priorities Of The Church, Man Will Not Be Well Served, And God Will Not Be Duly Honored. I Am Not Pleading For A Diminishing Of Missions But For A Magnifying Of God. When The Flame Of Worship Burns With The Heat Of God's True Worth, The Light Of Missions Will Shine To The Darkest Peoples On Earth. And I Long For That Day To Come!

Satan's Aim Is To Destroy Our Joy And Trust And Delight In God, And To Make God Look Worthless In The World's Eyes. Everytime Someone Forsakes God For The World, Gets Angry At God When Part Of The World Is Taken Away From Them, They Highlight The World As Valuable... And Everytime Someone Stays With God, When The World Is Taken Away, And Praises God, They Highlight The Value And Glory Of God.

The Very Longing For Contentment That Ought To Drive Us To Simplicity Of Life And Labors Of Love Contents Itself Instead With The Broken Cisterns Of Prosperity And Comfort.

Feeling Loved By God Means Feeling Glad Not Only That He Crushed His Son So That I Can Be Forgiven, But That He's Crushing Everything That Takes Away From My Praising Of The Glory Of His Grace.
