I have the unspeakable knowledge that my life is the answer to prayers, and that God is blessing me and making me a blessing entirely of His sovereign grace and nothing to do with my merits, saving as I am bold enough to trust His leading and not the dictates of my own wisdom and common sense."
"Be careful that you don't become a hypocrite by spending all your time trying to get others right with God before you worship Him yourself."
