"There are a lot of 'chicken Christians.' Chickens are generally afraid of life, and they seldom fly ..." — Joyce Meyer

Real Christianity can be summed up in two commands: Love God, and love people.

God doesn't do things halfway. He goes all out! When God does something, it's not just barely enough, mediocre or lukewarm.

The Bible tells us to be perfect. This is likely a scary thought for many people. It used to scare me. I didn't think I could ever get there, no matter how hard I tried.

I'm just telling you, God permits things in our lives sometimes for reasons that we do not understand yet because of the spiritual level that we're on. We can't have any understanding of it, because we're not at a place of spiritual growth yet where we understand the deeper things of God.
