Remember that the Maker of the stars would rather die for you than live without you. -- Max Lucado
Dear Heavenly Father,
Your Word is Alive
and full of Power.
Your Word is Active
and Energizing.
Your Word penetrates
to the deepest parts of my heart.
Your Word exposes my motives,
my thoughts, and my purposes.
Lord, change me
with your Word.
AMEN
God hath not promised
Skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways
All our lives through;
God hath not promised
Sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Peace without pain.
But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor,
Light for the way,
Grace for the trials,
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.
–Annie Johnson Flin
The kingdom of God is a kingdom of paradox, where through the ugly defeat of a cross, a holy God is utterly glorified. Victory comes through defeat; healing through brokenness; finding self through losing self. Charles Colson
It was all Him! The seeking, the cleansing, the redeeming of a bride. Oh, church, doesn't your heart thrill to this husband!
"God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:8
