“We are to trust God. We are to rest in His authority. We can trust Him that even though we don’t physically see Him, He is there to act. And we are to do so with humility and a sense of nonentitlement that makes us dependent on being responsive to the one who has done this on our behalf.” (source)
“We put our spiritual welfare in God’s hands through what He has done in Jesus, and by doing that we create a dependent faith that then is able to drive our spiritual life in a positive way for the rest of the journey that is salvation.” (source)
“the Pharisee has a view of relations that goes like this: God doesn’t want the pious to hang out with sinners.” (source)
