It is important to know that you have to work to keep love alive; you have to protect it and maintain is, just like you would a delicate flower.

From 1 Corinthians 13:13:  “And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.”

There are whole tracts of stubbornness and ignorance to be revealed by the Holy Spirit in each of us, and it can only be done when Jesus gets us alone.

From Mark 4:10-12:  “When He [Jesus] was alone, those who were around Him along with the twelve asked Him about the parables.  And He said to them, ‘To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside, everything comes in parables; in order that they may indeed look, but not perceive, and may indeed listen, but not understand; so that they may not turn again and be forgiven.'”

Charles Swindoll Quote

Take the word “coincidental” out of your vocabulary, along with “luck.”  You can trash them both!  You don’t need them anymore.  Nothing is coincidental!  “Luck” has no place in a Christian’s vocabulary.

From Joel 2:26:  “You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you.”

If not washed in Christ’s blood and clothed in His righteousness, no heaven for you, no heaven for me.

The process of living seems to consist in coming to realise truths so ancient and simple that, if stated, they sound like barren platitudes.  They cannot sound otherwise to those who have not had the relevant experience.

From Proverbs 13:20:  “Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools suffers harm.”

Prayer Quotes

The Divine wisdom has given us prayer, not as a means whereby to obtain the good things of earth, but as a means whereby we learn to do without them; not as a means whereby we escape evil, but as a means whereby we become strong to meet it.

Pray till prayer makes you forget your own wish, and leave it or merge it in God’s will.

These quotes come from Frederick W. Robertson, English preacher and Christian author.

When a man is born again, he knows that it is because he has received something as a gift from Almighty God and not because of his own decision.

From Acts 26:17-18:  [Jesus is speaking to Saul] “I will rescue you from your people and from the Gentiles–to whom I am sending you to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.”
