| | Re: | | Hi DS... Quote:
Prayer is preoccupation with our needs.
Praise is preoccupation with our blessings
Worship is preoccupation with God himself.
He quoted a hymn writer that said
My goal is God Himself, not joy, not peace, not even blessings, but it is Thee my God.
That is a great quote. Well, if it was already posted -- it definitely deserved to be posted again! Thanks!
:-)

"You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody."

Christ is the Son of God. He died as the Redeemer for the sins of humankind, and was raised up from the dead after three days. This is the most important fact in the world. I shall die believing in Christ. Ni Tuosheng/Watchman Nee

The communion of the Church was not instituted to be a chain to bind us in idolatry, impiety, ignorance of God, and other kinds of evil, but rather to retain us in the fear of God and obedience of the truth. John Calvin

Read part of the life of Jonathan Edwards. How feeble does my spark of Christianity appear beside such a sun! But even his was a borrowed light, and the same source is still open to enlighten me. Robert Murray MCheyne

Online! | | Re: | | "Oh I want all I am to die
So all He is can come alive
Until everyone I talk to hears His voice
And everything I touch feels the warmth of His hand
Until everyone I meet
Sees Jesus in me
This is all I wanna be
I wanna be mistaken
For Jesus
Oh I wanna be mistaken"

"Whatsoever we have over-loved, idolized, and leaned upon, God has from time to time broken it, and made us to see the vanity of it so that we find the readiest course to be rid of our comforts is to set our hearts inordinately upon them."
