“This yields a practical help for Bible study: read the Bible with a red pen in hand. I suggest that you put a question mark in the margin beside every passage that you find unclear or hard to understand. Likewise, put an X beside every passage that offends you or makes you uncomfortable. Afterward, you can focus on the areas you struggle with, especially the texts marked with an X. This can be a guide to holiness, as the Xs show us quickly where our thinking is out of line with the mind of Christ. If I don't like something I read in Scripture, perhaps I simply don't understand it. If so, studying it again may help. If, in fact, I do understand the passage and still don't like it, this is not an
indication there is something wrong with the Bible. It's an indication that something is wrong with me, something that needs to change. Often, before we can get something right, we need to first discover what we're doing wrong.”

“Our interest in the will of God tends to spring more from curiosity or fear than devotion to Him. We think it would be helpful to get a glimpse of our lives five years from now. We certainly don’t want to make a mistake that could cause us grief. “Lord, a little guidance, please?” But this preoccupation with the future, more than the will of God, may hurt us more than help us. Perhaps we will find deepest satisfaction not in second-guessing the future but living fully in this moment, this day. As we live in His presence, we live in His will.”
― David Timms, Living the Lord's Prayer

“None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have faith.”
― Paulo Coelho

“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”
