God has given us the DNA of righteousness. We are saints. Nothing we do will make us more righteous than we already are. Nothing we do will alter this reality. God knows our DNA. He knows that we are "Christ in me."
-John S. Lynch

-Henry Morris
God does not comfort us by showing us the future, but by showing us Himself.

“God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7). This doesn’t mean we should give only when we’re feeling cheerful. The cheerfulness often comes during and after the act of obedience, not before it. So don’t wait until you feel like giving—it could be a long wait! Just give and watch the joy follow.

Bible commentator R. C. H.

-John MacArthur
Expecting perfection from ourselves or others is not what holiness is about.
