Quotes about Gift

How terribly we cheat ourselves when we have as much as we want from God. Although many of us have received the gift of salvation, in other ways, we are not unlike some of the Jews Paul encountered. We mimic the words of Felix and sometimes hold up our hand to God and say, "That's enough. That's all I'm comfortable with" (see Acts 24:25).
