That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and
many other problems."

“What would Jesus do?” and then think of another, “How would Jesus do
it?” for what he would do, and how he would do it, may always stand as

Charles Spurgeon
"The purpose of the Bible is simply
to proclaim God’s plan to save His children. It asserts that man is lost
and needs to be saved. And it communicates the message that Jesus is the
God in the flesh sent to save His children."
Max Lucado
"Jesus did not die on the cross just
so we could live comfortable, well adjusted lives. His purpose is far
deeper: He wants to make us like himself before he takes us to heaven.
This is our greatest privilege, our immediate responsibility, and our
ultimate destiny."
Rick Warren
"The one thing He commands us as His branches
is to bear fruit. Let us live to bless others, to testify of the life
and the love there is in Jesus. Let us in faith and obedience give our
whole life to that which Jesus chose us for and appointed us to—fruit-bearing."
Andrew Murray
"The man that is popular with the world
is not a friend of Jesus. You cannot serve two masters. The world hates
Christ, and if you are a friend of the world you cannot be a friend of
His. You may be sure that something is wrong with you when everybody is
your friend."
D. L. Moody
"Because the Lord Jesus died on the
Cross, I have received forgiveness of sins; because the Lord Jesus rose
from the dead, I have received new life; because the Lord Jesus has been
exalted to the right hand of the Father, I have received the outpoured
Spirit. All is because of Him; nothing is because of me."
Watchman Nee
"Nothing on earth can be compared with
the glory of a life lived in fellowship with God and in the fulfillment
of His purposes. The life that Jesus lived on earth was the most wonderful,
the most glorious and the happiest life that any man ever lived. He wasn't
world-famous or rich. But He radiated the glory of God through His life."
Zac Poonan
"The Lord Jesus died for the ungodly. He was obedient at
all costs : He bore everything, and went down into the dust of death,
man's hatred, God's desertion, and Satan's power ; we find Him there at
the cost of everything. Everything that was against us was done away.
By one man's obedience many are made righteous."
John Darby
"Jesus was the happiest man that ever walked
this earth. Yet He was the One Who suffered the most. His happiness came
out of doing the will of His Father - not by having an easy way through
life. He knew His Father as perfect Love and so He joyfully submitted
to all that the Father sent His way. That was the secret of His whole
life."
Zac Poonan
"Thus is Jesus in all respects fitted
for his mighty work of redeeming. He is very man and very God. He is the
seed of the woman, the seed of Abraham, the seed of David, the son of
Mary, yet God over all, blessed forever. Thus He can bear our sins; He
can sympathize with our sorrows; He can fight our battles; He can love
as a man, a fellow man, bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh."
Horatius Bonar
"Jesus was not a whisperer. No
one ever saw Him close to His neighbor's ear, looking stealthily around
lest some one should overhear what He was going to say. He stood upright,
looked men squarely and kindly in the eye, and spoke what He had to say
right out, boldly, frankly, that the whole world might hear; and when
He did speak privately to His disciples, He told them to shout it from
the housetops. 'Truth fears nothing but concealment,' said an old Church
Father, and Jesus spake only the truth.
