God made you to love him supremely, but he lost you. He returned to get you back, but it took the cross to do it. He absorbed your darkness so that one day you can finally and dazzlingly become your true self and take your seat at his eternal feast.

Image
You don't fall in love. You commit to it.
Timothy Keller
Image
You are a totally loved moral failure.

Timothy Keller
Image
Big cities have a lot of 'younger brothers' who have left traditional parts of the world and their families for a more liberal lifestyle. But cities are filled to the gills with 'elder brothers' too.
Timothy Keller
Image
God's grace and forgiveness, while free to the recipient, are always costly for the giver. From the earliest parts of the Bible, it was understood that God could not forgive without sacrifice. No one who is seriously wronged can “just forgive” the perpetrator.
Timothy Keller
Image
When Job was prospering, he prayed. When he was suffering, he still prayed.
Timothy Keller
Image
Suffering is the stripping of our hope in finite things, therefore we do not put our ultimate hope in anything finite.
Timothy Keller
Image
Where you find your significance is where you find your salvation.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you don't feel like praying, pray to God to give you the desire.
Timothy Keller
Image
Occasionally God rips aside the veil, and you begin to see this very fact: All things happen for you. All things. Everything is knit together.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you're avoiding sin and living morally so that God will have to bless you and save you, then you may be looking to Jesus as a teacher, model, and helper, but ironically you are avoiding him as Savior. You are trusting in your own goodness rather than in Jesus for your standing with God.
