Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.

The Maker of awesome galaxies and stars is also the infallible Physician of broken hearts and wounded spirits.

“The irony of the pain of suffering is that it points us to the higher joy found in Christ alone, in the midst of a supermarket of temptations to delight in other lesser realities. We sinful people tend to judge the degree of blessedness by the degree to which comfort and ease are afforded us. When we learn to judge the degree of our blessedness by the degree to which Christlikeness is being formed in us, we will be able to make more room in our hearts to embrace suffering as Paul did.”
