But you do have control over two important factors: You control your response, and you control how much you choose to trust God, regardless of your circumstances.”

“many believers have abandoned living for God’s great purposes and settled for personal fulfillment and emotional stability. That is narcissism, not discipleship.

This is our greatest privilege, our immediate responsibility, and our ultimate destiny.”
