Embarrassed

"Many of us Christians have become extremely skillful in arranging our lives so as to admit the truth of Christianity without being embarrassed by its implications.

We arrange things so that we can get on well enough without divine aid, while at the same time ostensibly seeking it.

We boast in the Lord but watch carefully that we never get caught depending on Him."

A.W.Tozer

Search Me Lord

"I think that most Christians would be better pleased if the Lord did not inquire into their personal affairs too closely.

They want Him to save them, keep them happy and take them to heaven at last, but not to be too inquisitive about their conduct or service.

But He has searched us and known us; He knows our downsitting and our uprising and understands our thoughts afar off.

There is no place to hide from those eyes that are as a flame of fire and there is no way to escape from the Judgment of those feet that are like fine brass.

It is the part of wisdom to live with these things in mind.

"Ouote From 'That Incredible Christian', 105-106.

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock."

Because God is responsible for our welfare, we are told to cast all our care upon Him, for He cares for us [1Pet 5:7]. God says, "I'll take the burden-don't give it a thought-leave it to Me." God is keenly aware that we are dependent upon Him for life's necessities.

Happy the generation where the great listen to the small, for it follows that in such a generation the small will listen to the great.

God did not create woman from man's head, that he should command her, nor from his feet, that she should be his slave, but rather from his side, that she should be near his heart.

The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a man's foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher.

Staying Young

“If you have left your dreams behind, if hope is cold,

If you no longer look ahead, if your innermost fires are dead

- Then you are old.

But if to God you give your best and if to life, you give the rest;

No matter how the years go by, no matter how the birthdays fly

- you are not old.”

"For I know the plans I have for you."

declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you

and not to harm you, plans to give

you hope and a future."

[ Jeremiah 29:11 ]
