Quote

There's a throne in each life big enough for only one. Christ may be on that throne, or money may be. But both cannot occupy it.

O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water (Psalm 63:1). We may imagine we want a thousand different things, but God is the one we really long for. His presence brings satisfaction his absence brings thirst and longing.

By trusting Christ's redemptive work for us, we can enter into what we long for: the happiness found only in God.

Image
Wealth is a relational barrier. It keeps us from having open relationships.

Image
The greatest deterrent to giving is the illusion that this earth is our home.

Image
Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable sinning is not biblical grace. God's grace never encourages us to live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and yes to truth.

Someday this upside-down world will be turned right side up. Nothing in all eternity will turn it back again. If we are wise, we will use our brief lives on earth positioning ourselves for the turn.

Christians are God's delivery people, through whom he does his giving to a needy world. We are conduits of God's grace to others. Our eternal investment portfolio should be full of the most strategic kingdom-building projects to which we can disburse God's funds.

Not only will we see His face and live, but we will likely wonder if we ever lived before we saw His face!

Sin and death and suffering and war and poverty are not natural—they are the devastating results of our rebellion against God. We long for a return to Paradise—a perfect world, without the corruption of sin, where God walks with us and talks with us in the cool of the day.

There's only one requirement for enjoying God's grace: being broke . . . and knowing it.

Why ask for your daily bread when you own the bakery?

The cost of redemption cannot be overstated. The wonders of grace cannot be overemphasized. Christ took the hell He didn't deserve so we could have the heaven we don't deserve.

Earth is a in-between world touched by both Heaven and Hell. Earth leads directly into Heaven or directly into Hell, affording a choice between the two. The best of life on Earth is a glimpse of Heaven the worst of life is a glimpse of Hell.

Heaven isn't an extrapolation of earthly thinking Earth is an extension of Heaven, made by the Creator King.

Give voluntarily. When we catch a vision of God's grace, we will give beyond our duty.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give deliberately. Giving is at its best when it's a conscious effort that's repeatedly made.

Tomorrow's character is made out of today's thoughts. Temptation may come suddenly, but sin does not.

Too often we assume that God has increased our income to increase our standard of living, when his stated purpose is to increase our standard of giving. (Look again at 2 Corinthians 8:14 and 9:11).
