Are we just like Jesus? The man of all men, the only One who makes hearts whole again, and He could have backed down, with those people around, but He proved for the last time that real men die.

Success in any relationship will only be found if we first pursue the divine Lover of our souls.
Just think. You are not here by chance but by God's choosing. His hand formed you and made you the person you are. He compares you to no one else. You are one of a kind. You lack nothing that His grace can't give you. He has allowed you to be here at this time in history to fulfill His special purpose for this generation. -Roy Lessin
God never asks us to do something that He doesn't give us the strength to accomplish. And whatever He is asking of you, it's only because He wants the very best for you. You are His princess, and He is jealously guarding your life. It may seem like a sacrifice to obey Him, and you may not understand all the reasons why, but in the end, it will be the greatest blessing. -Eric and Leslie Ludy, "When Dreams Come True"
I don't want to be righteous because I feel bad about being bad. I want to be righteous because I understand what grace is, and grace is driving me toward righteousness - not guilt. -Bebo Norman
God has allowed me to be here, doing this, for a time. All I can do is be a wise steward of my talents, and press on. -Ginny Owens
This is a calling. I get to love somebody at this level; I get to hurt that deeply. If we run to God with the pain and run to Him with the suffering, we can watch Him be strong in us. We cannot let that pain define us but shape us, shape our souls and our hearts. And the shaping always enlarges our capicity to love. -Steven Curtis Chapman, CCM Magazine, February 2003
God has not called us to the place of perfect service, but to the place of faithful service...not to the place of work without rest, but to the place of rest in our work...not to the place of making everyone happy, but to the place of pleasing Him. -Roy Lessin
I read this awesome thing in a book and this lady was addressing a letter she had received from a girl and this girl was talking about these terrible things that happened to her in her life and then she said, "But I know these trials are gonna make me stronger." Well, this lady addressed that and she said, "Well, you know, it is never the trial that makes us stronger. It's what we choose to do with that trial. If we choose to lay that at the foot of the cross and say, 'Lord, I give this to You.' And also if we choose to know that He has us exactly where we're supposed to be. During that time I found a verse in the beginning of James that says, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance and perseverance must finish it's work so that you can be complete and mature, not lacking anything." -Ginny Owens, from "Ginny's Story" on A Night in Rocketown
May our lives be impassioned only by faith...by influenced only by God...be taught only by Christ... -Max Lucado
Let God have you, and let God love you - and don't be suprised if your heart begins to hear music you've never heard and your feet learn to dance as never before. -Max Lucado |
