Grace is power, not just pardon.
John Piper
Image
The right creative act makes its own laws, and always will do.
John Piper
Image
Fight for us, O God, that we not drift numb and blind and foolish into vain and empty excitements. Life is too short, too precious, too painful to waste on worldly bubbles that burst. Heaven is too great, hell is too horrible, eternity is too long that we should putter around on the porch of eternity.
John Piper
Image
Sleep is a daily reminder from God that we are not God. Once a day God sends us to bed like patients with a sickness. The sickness is a chronic tendency to think we are in control and that our work is indispensable. To cure us of this disease God turns us into helpless sacks of sand once a day.

The Lord is kind. He is good to all who take refuge under his wings.

Don't coast through life without a passion.
John Piper
Image
Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us—a crucified God—must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world.

Ignatius, when he heard the clock strike, would say, Now I have another hour to answer for. (Eph. 5:16)

The immensity of His worth is reflected in the intensity of your worship.

Lavish giving and open homes are close to the center of life in Christ.
John Piper
Image
Faith is born and sustained by the Word of God, and out of faith grows the flower of joy.
John Piper
Image
It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about himself.
John Piper
Image
Only the # gospel can do two seemingly contradictory things: destroy pride and increase courage.
John Piper
Image
The most dangerous thing in the world is the sin of self-reliance and the stupor of worldliness.
John Piper
Image
Isn't it ironic that today people say, 'If you know the love of God, you don't have to worry when you go on in sin.' But the apostle John said, 'If you know the love of God, you won't be able to go on in sin.'

Don’t be surprised. There is nothing new under the sun. Only endless repackagings
John Piper
Image
Darkness comes. In the middle of it, the future looks blank. The temptation to quit is huge. Don't. You are in good company... You will argue with yourself that there is no way forward. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has more ropes and ladders and tunnels out of pits than you can conceive. Wait. Pray without ceasing. Hope.
John Piper

Life and death! They seem like complete opposites-at great enmity with each other. But for Paul-and for all who share his faith-there is a unity, because the same great passion is fulfilled in both-namely, that Christ be magnified in this body-our bodies-whether by life or by death.

God seldom calls us for an easier life, but always calls us to know more of him and drink more deeply of His sustaining grace.

When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news
