"When we depend on anything smaller than God……" — Tullian Tchividjian

"When we depend on anything smaller than God to provide us with the security, significance, meaning, and value that we long for, God will love us enough to take it away. Much of our anger and bitterness, therefore, is God prying open our hands and taking away something we've held onto more tightly than him."

— Tullian Tchividjian
