God does not love us because we are valuable, but we are valuable because God loves us.
— Martin Luther (1483-1546)
Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, God and Lord!
Be all thy graces now out-poured
On the believer’s mind and soul,
To strengthen, save, and make us whole.
— Martin Luther (1483-1546)
Sanctification
This life therefore is not righteousness but growth in righteousness; not health but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not what we shall be but we are growing toward it; the process is not yet finished but it is going on; this is not the end, but it is the road. All does not yet gleam in glory but all is being purified.
— Martin Luther
Adversity
They gave our Master a crown of thorns. Why do we hope for a crown of roses?
— Martin Luther (1483-1546)
Forgiveness
For God is not gracious and merciful to the end that sinners might not keep his Law, or that they should remain as they were before they received grace and mercy; but he condones and forgives both sin and death for the sake of Christ, who has fulfilled the whole Law in order to make the heart sweet and through the Holy Spirit to kindle the heart to begin to love from day to day more and more.
— Martin Luther (1483-1546)
