Our Duty –  Jeremiah Burroughs

Our Duty –  Jeremiah Burroughs

Now what am I to do? What can I think now are those duties that God requires of me in the circumstances that he has now put me into?  Let me exert my strength to perform the duties of my present circumstances. Others spend their thoughts on things that disturb and disquiet them, and so they grow more and more discontented. Let me spend my thoughts in thinking what my duty is, what is the duty of my present circumstances which I am in?

The Only Fear I Have – AW Tozer

The Only Fear I Have – AW Tozer

The only fear I have is to fear to get out of the will of God. Outside of the will of God, there’s nothing I want, and in the will of God there’s nothing I fear, for God has sworn to keep me in His will. If I’m out of His will that’s another matter. But if I’m in His will, He’s sworn to keep me.

How we use our blessings – WT Purkiser

How we use our blessings – WT Purkiser

Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving, and the words of John Fitzgerald Kennedy tell us that, “As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”

Total Commitment is Christ’s Demand – Chip Ingram

Total Commitment is Christ’s Demand – Chip Ingram

Many Christians “stall out” in the faith when the call to total commitment is received or viewed as something too high or too hard to acquire…or they have never been taught that total commitment is Christ’s demand for all His followers.
