God loves you unconditionally, as you are and not as you should be, because nobody is as they should be. It is the message of grace.~Quote by Brennan Manning

The great hope we find in the Christian faith is that God is not us.

Because Jesus paid it all, we are free from the need to do it all. Our identity, worth, and value, are not anchored in what we can accomplish but in what Jesus accomplished for us.

It's when we come to the end of ourselves that we come to the beginning of grace.

We are, without doubt, broken people living with other broken people in a broken world.

God attaches no strings to His love. None. His love for us does not depend on our loveliness. It goes one way. As far as our sin may extend, the grace of our Father extends further.

The only 'if' the Gospel knows is this: 'if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.' (1 John 2:1)

What you will encounter is 'grace unmeasured, vast and free' --the kind that will frighten and free you at the same time. That's what grace does, after all.

The reason there’s no oneness and no harmony in the church is because the believers don’t habitually walk in the light and they don’t constantly allow God’s light (knowledge) to shine in them.

You aren’t meant to fit in. Your fierce warrior spirit is meant to tear down old systems that lack integrity.

Insanity is the base for Creativity.

A secret's safest hiding place is in the open.

If I trim myself to suit others I will soon whittle myself away.

He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.

None of you need worry because you read something that was incompletely reported. You need not worry that I do not understand some matters of doctrine... I think I understand them thoroughly.

Fools with bookish knowledge art children with edged weapons; they hurt themselves, and put others in pain.

Maybe I don't like people as much as the rest of the world seems to...But occasionally, people will pleasantly surprise me and I'll fall in love with them, so go figure.

A clever man can see the world from a cave much better than a stupid man can from the top of a mountain!
