Resonating

Here are a few thoughts that have resounded with me recently:


I don't really care what your faith does for you after you die, I care a lot more about what your faith does for others while you're here. --Shane Hipps, Mars Hill Bible Church, on what unbelievers thought of his evangelism.


Love God and do as you please. --St. Augustine


She was ready every day and every moment, asking God, “Who do You want me to love for You today?" --Francis Chan, Forgotten God

Faith means you want God and want to want nothing else. -- Brennan Manning,

The Ragamuffin Gospel


I had rather exercise faith than know the definition thereof. --Thomas a Kempis

He develops toward himself a kindly sense of humor and learns to say, “Oh, so you have been overlooked? They have placed someone else before you? They have whispered that you are pretty small stuff after all?” And now you feel hurt because the world is saying about you the very things you have been saying about yourself? Only yesterday you were telling God that you were nothing, a mere worm of the dust. Where is your consistency? Come on, humble yourself, and cease to care what men think. --A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

He had everything, but he possessed nothing. There is the spiritual secret. --A. W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

No es bueno dejarse arrastrar por los sueños y olvidarse de vivir. --Dumbledore, Harry Potter y la Piedra Filosofal


Despues de todo para una mente bien organizada, la muerte no es más que la siguiente gran aventura.

--Dumbledore, Harry Potter y la Piedra Filosofal


In Him we live and move and have our being. -Acts 17:28. All of us are swimming in God though we may not realize it. Every moment of your life God is pressing against your skin. Every time you inhale God is exhaling and putting life inside of you. --Erwin McManus, Mosaic

Great stuff! The Tozer thing sounds like an article Paula sent me yesterday about self-esteem. I'll try to find it and send it to you.
