If you will just rush in there, you do not have to know all the theology and all the right words. You can say, “I am the one He came to die for.” Write it down in your heart and say, “Jesus, this is me—Thee and me,” as though there were no others. Have that kind of personalized belief in a personal Lord and Savior.”

You have to die to an extent in your hunger for faith, for wisdom, and quite frankly, most people aren’t ready to die.”
