To say that I am made in the image of God is to say that love is the reason for my existence, for God is love.

From 1 John 4:15-16:  “God abides in those who confess that Jesus is the Son of God, and they abide in God.  So we have known and believe the love that God has for us.”

Our Lord is searching for people who will make a difference.  Christians dare not dissolve into the background or blend into the neutral scenery of the world.

From Deuteronomy 31:8:  “It is the Lord who goes before you.  He will be with you; He will not fail or forsake you.  Do not fear or be dismayed.”

Being born again from above is a perennial, perpetual, and eternal beginning, a freshness all the time in thinking and in talking and in living, the continual surprise of the life of God.

From John 3:3:  “Jesus answered him, ‘Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.'”

We ought to make more progress, however little, every day, and show some increase of fervor.  We ought to act as if we were at war–as, indeed, we are–and never relax until we have won the victory.

From Matthew 7:13-14:  “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it.  For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it.”

The conversion of a soul is the miracle of a moment, but the manufacture of a saint is the task of a lifetime.
