Ministry is not for the faint of heart. If you need constant affirmation, appreciation for your efforts, applause for your preaching, praise for your leadership, or abundant patience when you fail, this calling will crush you. It’s not that these never occur—they do—but never with the frequency required to sustain a man who depends on them for his joy.
The formula is simple: Love. Lead. Limp. Do this faithfully for a few decades, then embrace obscurity and die. The world may not notice, but the Savior you served will, and His reward is greater than anything you sought from men.
Church buildings open and close.
Preachers live and die.
Conferences come and go.
Ministries rise and fall.
Christ remains the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Thomas Watson's three marks of meekness:
1. Submission to God’s Will: Accepting His providence without complaint.
2. Gentleness Toward Others: Responding to wrongs with kindness, not vengeance.
3. Humility in Self-View: Considering others more significant than oneself.
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” John 10:10
To possess Christ and to be like Him is to be most alive.
Arminians deny the imputation of the active obedience of Christ…
According to them justification…leaves it to man to merit acceptance with God and eternal life by faith and obedience.
