To lose hope has the same effect on our heart as it would be to stop breathing.

What if those deep desires in our hearts are telling us the truth, revealing to us the life we were meant to live?God gave us eyes so that we might see; he gave us ears that we might hear; he gave us will that we might choose, and he gave us hearts that we might live.The way we handle the heart is everything.

Intimacy with God is the purpose of our lives. It's why God created us.

Don't let your experience of God up to this point limit what you might enjoy with him in the coming years.

You will not think clearly about your life until you think mythically. Until you see with the eyes of your heart.

There is something about human nature that just doesn't want to face the reality that we live in two worlds. We live in the physical, material world where we have jobs, read books, and go about our business. And we live in a spiritual world - and that is a world at war.
