As the
week comes to a close I draw your attention to some quotes that will be “food
for thought”. My prayer is daily that
God will call out the potential in my life and out of the people around me.
These
will come from many different directions, go off in many directions and leave
us wanting more. Read and pray… have a
great weekend.
Charles Stanley --- We can be tired, weary and emotionally
distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects
into our bodies energy, power and strength.
Charles Spurgeon --- I would go to the deeps a hundred times to
cheer a downcast spirit. It is good for me to have been afflicted, that I might
know how to speak a word in season to one that is weary.
Johnny Hunt
--- Nobody changes until the pain of
staying the same is greater than the pain of change.
Joyce Meyer --- Forgiveness is not a feeling - it's a
decision we make because we want to do what's right before God. It's a quality
decision that won't be easy and it may take time to get through the process,
depending on the severity of the offense.
Kay Arthur --- God is in control, and therefore in
EVERYTHING I can give thanks - not because of the situation but because of the
One who directs and rules over it.
Mahatma Gandhi --- A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it
is the prerogative of the brave.
George Washington --- Be courteous to all, but intimate with few,
and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
George Muller --- The beginning of anxiety is the end of
faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety.
Joel A. Barker --- Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just
passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.
John Wayne --- Courage is being scared to death... and
saddling up anyway.
Martin Luther
King, Jr. --- Darkness cannot
drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only
love can do that.
Max Lucado --- When grace happens, we receive not a nice
compliment from God but a new heart. Give your heart to Christ, and he returns
the favor.
Joni Eareckson Tada
--- God is truly on the side of those who
work for social justice, especially when we accompany that work with the giving
of the Gospel!
Billy Graham --- Courage is contagious. When a brave man
takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.
Brian Houston
--- A blessed life is one that
understands that when God saves you, He has others in mind. I believe every
Christian needs to know that they are not only saved, but are also called to
live a life of purpose.”
1 John 4:17
NLT --- And as we live in God,
our love grows more perfect. So
we will not be afraid on the day
of judgment, but we can face him with
confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world.
