Top Highlights

“James points out four things to avoid if we want to know God’s will and serve him in the right way.” (Page 10)

“When you read Bible stories, ask yourself whether they are giving a warning to heed, or an example to follow.” (Page 6)

“love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.’ Galatians 5:22–23” (Page 36)

“It is not always to our advantage to know what is going to happen to us. Jesus told Peter, ‘When you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.’ John 21:18. This is probably a prediction of Peter’s future martyrdom when, according to tradition, he would be killed by crucifixion.” (Pages 20–21)

“Guidance is not a puzzle to be solved, but a relationship with Jesus. The closer we are to Jesus, the less anxious we will be about knowing God’s will for our lives.” (Page 14)
