I Want To Give You...

"[God] gives us the Bible and says, 'I want to give you understanding. The better you understand this Book, the better you will understand yourself. You are made in My image. I want to reveal to you from My Word how to use your hands, your feet, your eyes, your ears and your tongue... I want to tell you how My Word can make your heart work the way it is supposed to work.'"

- Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe

Discontent Has It's Own Punishment

Discontent is a sin that is its own punishment and makes men torment themselves; it makes the spirit sad, the body sick, and all the enjoyments sour; it is the heaviness of the heart and the rottenness of the bones. It is a sin that is its own parent. It arises not from the condition, but from the mind. As we find Paul contented in a prison, so Ahab discontent in a palace.

- Matthew Henry

Called To Walk In The Light

“From the moment we take our first gasp of air until we breathe our last, God is calling us to walk in the light of his Word.  Whatever ‘tomb’ might feel like security to you is really a deathtrap.  Morning has broken.  The stone has been rolled away.”

- In Mad Mary: A Bad Girl from Magdala, Liz Curtis Higgs (via Sarah Salter from her post, The Little Black Dress

A God-Shaped Vacuum

"There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing."

Are You Using Everything?

"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me."

- Erma Bombeck
