“It’s sad to watch someone continually look for something where it simply can’t be found. But we all do it. The deceptiveness of sin causes us to look horizontally for what will only ever be found vertically. We look to the creation to give us what only the Creator can. We try to turn people into little messiahs. We look to material things to supply spiritual needs. So we end up discouraged, disappointed, hurt, angry, sad, and without hope.” Paul Tripp
