The Downward Spiral of My Discontent

You can identify with this, I’m sure: “I find myself feeling Eeyore-like with a black cloud over my head and a target on my back. My already full plate doesn’t seem able to hold anything else and I’m speeding down the slippery slope of self-pity. At the same time, I’m exasperated with myself for my despondency.”

Marble Race

There’s something mesmerizing about this very long marble race.

Piper

God intends to use human prayers to accomplish his most ultimate and universal purposes.

—John Piper
