A. W. Pink Quote

True liberty is not the power to live as we please, but to live as we ought.

From Galatians 2:20:  “It is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me.  And the life I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Arthur Walkington (A. W.) Pink (1886-1952) was an English Bible teacher and Christian writer.  Following his death, many of his writings were well-received by readers.  This turnabout established him as an influential evangelical author.

Robert Fulghum Quote

What’s necessary to live a meaningful life–that isn’t all that complicated.  Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School.

From Proverbs 5:5-6:  “Get wisdom; get insight: do not forget nor turn away from the words of My mouth.  Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you.”

Robert Fulghum (born 1937) is an American author.

We need to remember how our own words can act as a sharpened sword filled with harsh cruelty or as a blessed tool of compassion and grace.

From John 11:14-16:  “I am the good shepherd. I know My own, and My own know Me, just as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father.  And I lay down My life for the sheep.  I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold.  I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice.  So there will be one flock, one shepherd.”
