Some John Piper quote I've been reading

"Do you feel loved by God because you believe he makes much of you, or because you believe he frees you and empowers you to enjoy making much of him?"

"If you live gladly to make others glad in God, your life will be hard, your risks will be high, and your joy will be full. "

"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him."

"We weren't meant to be somebody, we were meant to know Somebody."

"All heroes are shadows of Christ."

"The opposite of joy is not suffering, it is despair in suffering. "
