The great mistake made by most of the Lord's people is in hoping to discover in themselves that is to be found in Christ alone.  

Gene Edwards

Such is the hallmark of all true resurrections. The past is forever gone! Resurrection is beyond that which is dead. Resurrection means to arise from out of death into a new realm, a new time continuum where the past never happened. Resurrection is a demarcation. Everything before resurrection no longer exists. It never happened!! That is the essence of resurrection. Everything after resurrection is new and has no connection with the events of the past! After the resurrection, all things belong to a new creation. The essence of crucifixion is that it is a portal to pass through to come into the fullness of resurrection. Just as surely as there can be no resurrection without crucifixion, there can be no true crucifixion without Gethsemane. Join your Lord in Gethsemane, join Him at Golgotha. Then can you join Him in resurrection!

Hanging on the cross, Jesus experienced in Himself two opposing forces – the negative of our sins and the positive of God’s love. After three days, Jesus overcame evil, which split away, setting loose new powers of righteousness and resurrection. Evil, death, guilt and fear are conquered, while the saving power of God’s love is released for everyone who asks for it. Christ gloriously and triumphantly rose from the dead,

C S Lewis

Christ wants a child's heart, but a grown-up's head. He wants us to be simple, single-minded, affectionate, and teachable, as good children are; but He also wants every bit of intelligence we have to be alert at its job, and in first-class fighting trim.  

Max Lucado

Don't see your struggle as an interruption to life but as a preparation for life.  

Frederick Buechner

Romantic love is blind to everything except what is lovable and lovely, but Christ's love sees us with terrible clarity and sees us whole. Christ's love so wishes our joy that it is ruthless against everything in us that diminishes our joy. The worst sentence Love can pass is that we behold the suffering which Love has endured for our sake, and that is also our acquittal. The justice and mercy of the judge are ultimately one.

Josh Billings

As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand.

Jerry Bridges

As I get older, do it yourself projects around the house that used to come easily to me, don't anymore. So, I often find myself crying out to God to help me complete the routine tasks that I used to do. I think this growing sense of dependency is due to more than growing older. I think it is part of God's process of maturing me as a believer. The same thing is true in both my physical life and my spiritual life. The truth, however, is that in my younger years, I was just as dependent on God as I am now. I just did not recognise it.

Matthew Henry

Seducers are more dangerous enemies to the church than persecutors.

Watchman Nee

He can only keep those who have handed themselves over to Him.
