“La obediencia libera el poder de Dios. Dios espera que actúes primero. No esperes hasta que te sientas poderoso o seguro. Sigue adelante pese a tu debilidad, haciendo lo correcto a pesar de tus temores y sentimientos. Así es como cooperas con el Espíritu Santo, y es como se desarrolla tu carácter. La Biblia compara el crecimiento espiritual con una semilla, un edificio o un niño en crecimiento. Cada metáfora requiere una participación activa: las semillas deben ser plantadas y cultivadas, los edificios deben ser construidos —no surgen de la nada— y los niños deben comer y hacer ejercicio para crecer. Aunque el esfuerzo no tiene nada que ver con nuestra salvación, tiene mucho que ver con nuestro crecimiento espiritual. Por lo menos ocho veces en el Nuevo Testamento se nos dice que «hagamos todo esfuerzo»17 en nuestro crecimiento para llegar a ser como Jesús. Uno no se sienta simplemente a esperar que suceda.”

“Knowing your purpose gives meaning to your life. We were made to have meaning. This is why people try dubious methods, like astrology or psychics, to discover it. When life has meaning, you can bear almost anything; without it, nothing is bearable.”

“We often forget that God has emotions, too. He feels things very deeply. The Bible tells us that God grieves, gets jealous and angry, and feels compassion, pity, sorrow, and sympathy as well as happiness, gladness, and satisfaction. God loves, delights, gets pleasure, rejoices, enjoys, and even laughs!

“But there is a God who made you for a reason, and your life has profound meaning! We discover that meaning and purpose only when we make God the reference point of our lives.”
