“Grace is the seed of glory, the dawning of glory in the heart, and therefore grace is the earnest of the future inheritance.”
“I was born that men should live; I have grace for grace,I moved from glory to glory”
“There is no glory in honesty if it is destructive. And no shame in dishonesty if its goal is to offer grace.”
“The ultimate difference between God's wisdom and man's wisdom is how they relate to the glory of God's grace in Christ crucified. God's wisdom makes the glory of God's grace our supreme treasure.

“There is the incense of wisdom, whispering, to speak of grace in the dark/there is the scent of primal animals, grappling with the glory of the dark.”
