Desperation Quote by Tullian Tchividjian

“The good news of suffering is that it brings us to the end of ourselves - a purpose it has certainly served in my life. It brings us to the place of honesty, which is the place of desperation, which is the place of faith, which is the place of freedom.” quote by Tullian Tchividjian
