(  ) Gary_Merriman | Mar 3, 2014 | Really enjoyed this fresh look at desiring God. These are some of my favorite quotes: “If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.” by CS Lewis “The great hindrance to worship is not that we are pleasure-seeking people, but that we are willing to settle for such pitiful pleasures.” “God is not glorified when we keep for ourselves (no matter how thankfully) what we ought to be using to alleviate the misery of unevangelized, unmedicated and unfed millions.” "Life is war. All talk of a Christian's right to live luxuriously 'as a child of the King' in this atmosphere sounds hollow - especially since the King Himself stripped for battle.” "The great incentive for throwing our lives into the cause of missions is the 10,000 - percent return on the investment." “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” Jim Elliot “In the pursuit of joy through suffering, we magnify the all-satisfying worth of the Source of our joy.” ( ) dannywahlquist | May 14, 2013 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
