Reflections

Will is to grace as the horse is to the rider.
~ Saint Augustine

Grace is something you can never get but can only be given. There’s no way to earn it or deserve it or bring about any more than you can deserve the taste of raspberries and cream or earn good looks.
~ Frederick Buechner, 1926-2022, Author and Pastor

How much larger your life would be if your self could become smaller in it.
~ G.K. Chesterton, 1874-1936, English writer and journalist

All human nature vigorously resists grace because grace changes us and the change is painful.
~ Flannery O’Connor, 1925-1964, Author/Essayist

I can safely say, on the authority of all that is revealed in the Word of God, that any man or woman on this earth who is bored and turned off by worship is not ready for heaven.
~ A.W. Tozer, 1897-1963, American author and Pastor
