When was the last time the presence of God made you forget what was going on around you?
– Tim Dilena –
The Christian’s life is a matchless riddle. No worldling can understand it. Dead, yet alive! Crucified with Christ, and yet at the same time Risen with Christ in newness of life! Union with the suffering, bleeding Saviour, and death to the world and sin, are soul-cheering things. O for more enjoyment of them.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Spirit-filled souls are ablaze for God. They love with a love that glows. They serve with a faith that kindles. They serve with a devotion that consumes. They hate sin with fierceness that burns. They rejoice with a joy that radiates. Love is perfected in the fire of God.
– Samuel Chadwick –
David was the last one we would have chosen to fight the giant, but he was chosen of God.
– Dwight L. Moody –
In biblical thinking, genuine love exists only when good works are done in a context where God rather than the doer gets the credit.
– Daniel Fuller –
We are not made holy for ourselves, but for God.
– Oswald Chambers –
from If You Will Ask
A Christian will part with anything rather than his hope; he knows that hope will keep the heart both from aching and breaking, from fainting and sinking; he knows that hope is a beam of God, a spark of glory, and that nothing shall extinguish it till the soul be filled with glory.
