Prayer Causes Things To Happen That Wouldn't

We Give Glory To God When We Trust Him To Do What He Has Promised To Do-especially When All Human Possibilities Are Exhausted. Faith Glorifies God. That Is Why God Planned For Faith To Be The Way We Are Justified.

We Can Be Content With Simplicity Because The Deepest Most Satisfying Delights God Gives Us Through Creation Are Free Gifts From Nature And From Loving Relationships With People. After Your Basic Needs Are Met, Accumulated Money Begins To Diminish Your Capacity For These Pleasures Rather Than Increase Them. Buying Things Contributes Absolutely Nothing To The Heart's Capacity For Joy.

The Strength Of Patience Hangs On Our Capacity To Believe That God Is Up To Something Good For Us In All Our Delays And Detours.

God Has An Inexhaustible Enthusiasm For The Supremacy Of His Name Among The Nations.

Every Good Thing In The Christian Life Grows In The Soil Of Humility. Without Humility, Every Virtue And Every Grace Withers. That’s Why Calvin Said Humility Is First, Second, And Third In The Christian Faith.
