Because . . . Nothing worthwhile in life is free,” Balint…
““Because . . . Nothing worthwhile in life is free,” Balint said. “When it costs something, that item becomes much dearer. Yes, the Word could have saved all of mankind by just His words, but instead He chose to heal mankind in a different way, by taking on the hurt and darkness Himself. And in doing so, we realize just how dear we are to Him.””
