The Gospel is not so much a demand as it is an offer, an offer of new life to man by the grace of God.

From Proverbs 30:5:  “Every word of God proves true; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.”

Christ came into the world to save sinners, not good people, and your unworthiness is your greatest claim for His salvation.

From John 3:16:  “For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him may not perish but may have eternal life.”

C. S. Lewis Quote

God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there.  There is no such thing.

From Psalm 23:5-6:  “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over.  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”

A schedule defends from chaos and whim.  It is a net for catching days.  It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time.

Spend the afternoon.  You can’t take it with you.

James Dobson Quote

Prescription for a happier and healthier life:  resolve to slow down your pace; learn to say no gracefully; resist the temptation to chase after more pleasure, more hobbies, and more social entanglements.

From Psalm 62:1-2:  “For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.  He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken.”

God would love to piece together the shattered fragments of your life.  But He is waiting . . . graciously waiting until the time is right.  Until you recognize your need for Him . . . He’s waiting.

From Proverbs 15:23:  “To make an apt answer is a joy to anyone, and a word in season, how good it is!”

It is not enough for us to be where God is worshipped, if we do not ourselves worship Him.

From John 4:23-24:  “But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship him.  God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
