“Faith is not a bargain with God—I will trust you if… We have to trust in God whether or not He sends us money, whether or not He gives us health. We must have faith in God, not in His gifts.” – Oswald Chambers
"If my sinfulness appears to me to be in any way smaller or less detestable in comparison with the sins of others, I am still not recognizing my sinfulness at all". - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together.
