Good Quote to Contemplate


God has put enough into the world 
to make faith in Him a most reasonable thing. 
But He has left enough out 
to make it impossible to live 
by sheer reason or observation alone.  

                                -Ravi Zacharias

My Transgressions

Who among us is righteous enough to say: 'I have not sinned?' Our lives are an ALPHABET OF WOE. We have all committed offenses; together we confess these human sins:
The sins of arrogance, bigotry, and cynicism; of deceit and egotism; flattery, greed, hypocrisy; injustice and jealousy. Some of us kept grudges, were lustful, malicious, or narrow-minded. Others were obstinate or possessive, quarrelsome, rancorous, selfish, or tyrannical. There was upset, violence, weakness of will, zenophobia (fear/hatred of strangers/foreigners). We yielded to temptation, and showed zeal for bad causes.

Isaiah 43

"But now thus says the Lord, He who created you, O Jacob, He who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you, when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you." Isaiah 43:1-2 (ESV)

HAPPY HEART DAY

                 The Love of God  ---
"Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky."

-3rd stanza of Frederick Lehman 
Hymn, The Love of God

"Help Me, Jesus!"

"I am above all things: your problems, your pain, and the swirling events in this ever-changing world. When you behold My Face, you rise above circumstances and rest with Me in heavenly realms. This is the way of Peace, living in the Light of My Presence. I guarantee that you will always have problems in this life, but they must not become your focus. When you feel yourself sinking in the sea of circumstances, say, 'Help me, Jesus!' and I will draw you back to Me. If you have to say that thousands of times daily, don't be discouraged. I know your weakness, and I meet you in that very place."
- Jesus Calling, February 8
