“…., it’s sometimes very bad.”

“I don’t appreciate neat, tidy and superficial references to suffering that seem to say,

‘Cheer up’, and

‘God will protect his children from suffering’, and

‘It’s not so bad if you’re a Christian.’

Actually,  it’s sometimes very bad.” – Randy Alcorn (Why, God?, Foreword)

“Consider Jesus…..”

“Consider Jesus. Know Jesus. Learn what kind of person it is you say you trust and love and worship. Soak in the shadow of Jesus. Saturate your soul with the ways of Jesus. Watch Him. Listen to Him…. Let Him overwhelm you with the way He is.” – John Piper
