Quotes about Help
God does not need your good works, but your neighbor does.
- Martin Luther

When God's judgment is avoided, God also flees, but when it is received, He, too, becomes near. For "in trouble You have enlarged for me" (Ps. 4:1), and "a Help in the troubles that have come upon us" (Ps. 46:1). And Ps. 9:9, "A Helper in due time in tribulation." And there is no lie in this, but it becomes a lie, if you flee from God's judgment.

- Euripides
Love is doing what will enthrall the beloved with the greatest and longest joy. What will enthrall the beloved this way is the glory of God. Love means doing all we can, at whatever cost to ourselves, to help people be enthralled with the glory of God. When they are, they are satisfied and God is glorified. Therefore loving people and glorifying God are one.
