William Wilberforce on emotions

"We can barely look anywhere in the Bible without finding abundant proof that God wants us to experience a faith that includes our emotions. Love, zeal, gratitude, joy, hope, trust (each one of them mentioned in the Bible) were not given to us to make us weak; instead, we are even commanded to experience these emotions as part of our faith's duties. They are an integral part of the worship that is acceptable to God."

William Wilberforce

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

"The great majority of the Christian world is still weeping at the foot of the cross. The consciousness of man is fixed on the Christ Who died, not the Christ Who LIVES. They are looking back to the Redeemer Who was, not the redeemer who IS."

by John G. Lake

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

"Religion is man's work towards God, but Christianity is God's work in man. Christianity is Christ alive in you."

My Hope is Jesus

Some hope in chariots, some hope in wealth

My hope is Jesus and nothing else

O such love, such love and grace

Leads me to seek my Savior's face

Some hope in armies and the strength of men

My hope is Jesus who calls me friend

He bears me up if I should fall

My everything, my all in all

What love is this

That knows no bounds to faithfulness ?

What help will He not give ?

The Son of God through whom I live

Some hope in fortune some hope in fame

My hope is Jesus, salvation's name

For there He hung and bore my sin

That I might live and bear His name

What love is this ?

The Savior's blood, my righteousness

His wounds to make me whole

His sacrifice to save my soul

What love is this ?

That knows no pride or selfishness

Poured out upon my need

Love's work is done and I am free

My Hope is Jesus

Something to think about

"There is only one treasure worth selling everything to have. The transcendent value of the kingdom of God's grace is equalled by its transforming power. This pearl of great value is like a Trojan horse of God's love. It comes into our lives ...to ... infiltrate every sphere of our lives and to liberate us not to love our lives so much as to shrink from death.

We will either be obsessed with smoking paper bags, making A's in seminary, making a lot of money, wearing a size 6 dress, building successful ministries, getting a record deal, retiring at age forty-five, getting on the mission field, ... having the perfect little Christian family - in short we will either be obsessed with ourselves or with the only magnificent obsession, the kingdom of God."
