Here are some of my favorite quotes from Christian articles around the web, including bringing Christ joy on earth, Paul’s thorn, and more. If you found a quote you really like, then be sure to send it to us so we can share it with others!
The only bearing witness to Jesus that you will ever do is in this world. There are no lost people in heaven and those who believe know him and enjoy him forever.
Even when you’ve planned something good, if God takes it away, have faith that His gift is even better than whatever you were trying to achieve. God’s goodness and mercy follow us everywhere, even when circumstances are different than what we wanted. We just have to choose to see them.
