David, I continue to pray for Tracy, your family, and your faithful chaplaincy and writing ministries.
I'd like you and others to enjoy these great thoughts from John Piper, a BGC pastor is the US.
INSCRIPTION: "This book will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from this book." John Piper: “I am still pleading for God to create coronary Christians. If you are going to be the kind of person who gets up when you get knocked down and instead of planning revenge, plans fresh strategies of love; and instead of questioning God, submits to his wise and good sovereignty; and instead of whining, rejoices in tribulation and is refined like steel, then you will have to learn to kill the sins of self-pity and pride and grudge-holding and loving the praise of man. In other words, coronary Christians who joyfully press on in some great Cause of love and justice don't come out of nowhere. They come out of the fiery furnace of warfare with sin – fought mainly in their own souls.”
