Judah Smith Quote: “Storms happen. I can’t promise that you won’t get wet. I can’t promise that you won’t go through tough times. But I can promise that Jesus is bigger than your storm and that he is with you. The storm will end. The wind will cease. The waves will be still. Jesus will see you safely through to the other side.”
Judah Smith Quote: “It’s far too easy to make life all about the outside me, the external me, the physical me. We fall into the trap that if we can be healthy, wealthy, popular, productive, and influential, then life will be good. So we throw ourselves into the chase, thinking that internal happiness will come from external success. If we just try hard enough, if we just wait long enough, if we just reach the next level, we will feel at peace.”
Judah Smith Quote: “If God started a work in you, you can be sure he intends to complete it. Your hang-ups and mess-ups don’t take him by surprise. At no point in the process does he say, “This is more than I expected. You are in worse shape than I thought. I’d better cut my losses and give up on you.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Remember, God is what makes the four statements at the heart of this book work: 1. Life is to be loved and to love. 2. Life is to trust God in every moment. 3. Life is to be at peace with God and yourself. 4. Life is to enjoy God.”
Judah Smith Quote: “I can imagine myself in her place: trapped by a sordid past, terribly alone, defenseless before a crowd of jeering judges who hold my life in their hands. And then, when hope is lost, the one who truly has the right to condemn me looks at me. In his eyes I read something completely unexpected. Compassion.”
Judah Smith Quote: “What we do on Sunday absolutely doesn’t matter unless it meets us on Monday. Changes us on Monday. Transforms us on Monday.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Many of us live with incredible tension and anxiety because we think that our dreams will come true if we just get the right degree, if we just meet the right people, if we just get the right job. We assume our happiness is tied to our success, and our success depends on our performance. So we sweat and struggle and scheme and strategize, and we wonder why we aren’t enjoying life.”
Judah Smith Quote: “When we make up rules because we are afraid people will sin, we end up doing an end run around faith. It’s not fear that saves us – it’s faith. Fear of failure has a sneaky way of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. We focus so much on what we don’t want to do that we are drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Or like a mosquito to a bug zapper, since we’re in the twenty-first century now.”
Judah Smith Quote: “The problem isn’t lack of love. It’s impossible expectations. It’s the belief that our souls can find ultimate satisfaction and strength by anchoring themselves to another human soul. But person after person lets us down because their souls are hurting too. We tie ourselves to each other, then we both end up nearly drowned by the storms of life. We squabble and complain, “Why haven’t you saved me yet?” And the other yells back, “I don’t know! I thought you were going to help me!”
Judah Smith Quote: “Sometimes we treat God like an antique chair, when, in fact, God is a lot more like an IKEA couch. I don’t mean in his worth or his beauty or his grandeur, of course – in every category he is beyond compare. But in terms of relationship, we often treat God more like an expensive antique, when he invites us to treat him like an IKEA couch.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Life does not consist of what should have happened, what might have happened, or what hopefully will happen. Life is what is happening – right now.”
Judah Smith Quote: “We aren’t Christians because we live like Christians; we are Christians because we have accepted the gift of salvation. We have come to know God on an experiential, authentic level.”
Judah Smith Quote: “I wonder if we have a lot of sons running around saying, “I want a Dad.” But you won’t abide in anyone.”
Judah Smith Quote: “No sooner do I conquer a bad habit than I become the biggest critic of anyone who still does what I just stopped doing.”
Judah Smith Quote: “I think people would be surprised to discover that their challenges and struggles are not too dissimilar to us, average ordinary people, we’re all looking for essentially the same thing and I think that’s faith and hope and love and meaning and of course satisfaction, peace, joy.”
Judah Smith Quote: “We are often harsher judges than God himself.”
Judah Smith Quote: “An effective life is first and foremost a surrendered life.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Religion says that obedience brings acceptance. The gospel teaches the opposite: acceptance brings obedience.”
Judah Smith Quote: “We spend most of our lives working furiously toward goals that, when achieved, turn out to hold less substance than a Twinkie.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Worry is useless. Worry saps our strength and steals our focus. It causes us to be more awestruck and dumbfounded by storms than by the one who silences storms with a word.”
Judah Smith Quote: “If we could get people to think about Jesus, we reasoned, Jesus was more than able to reveal himself to them.”
Judah Smith Quote: “When it comes to sin, the only one who has a right to condemn others is Jesus. And he refused.”
Judah Smith Quote: “It is absolutely essential to have a living visible example of what a Christian ought to be.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Everything that tastes awesome makes you look huge. And everything that tastes horrible makes you look awesome. Why, God, why?”
Judah Smith Quote: “But what is remarkable and even overwhelming is that because these people are so fixated on the law, they can’t celebrate the fact that this man is now standing and walking. All they can see is that someone healed him on the Sabbath, and now he is carrying his bed on the Sabbath.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Rules are not bad, but they can’t save anyone.”
Judah Smith Quote: “The more we live from heaven to earth – that is, the more we orient and adjust our lives to take eternity into account – the healthier and happier our souls will be.”
Judah Smith Quote: “Do you want to live an effective life? It’s not as complicated as some might say it is. First, yield to God, your Creator and your Father. Turn over control of your ways and your days to him. And second, receive from the community that God puts around you. It’s that simple. Stay surrendered and stay surrounded.”
Judah Smith Quote: “A father doesn’t say, ‘Don’t go that way.’ He says, ‘ome follow me.’”
