Welcome to my blog. Here I share my thoughts on what matters to me.
“Prayer is the opening of the heart to God as to a friend. Not that it is necessary in order to make known to God what we are, but in order to enable us to receive Him. Prayer does not bring God down to us, but brings us up to Him.”
- Steps to Christ p 93
God called Saul to be king and now uses him to deliver the children of Israel.
“If we would just learn to listen, God's created works will teach us precious lessons of obedience and trust.”
”like the Son of Man, who did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life to redeem many people."
- Matthew 20:28 Good News Translation
Do we long to be like everyone else, when God has called us to be unique?
“Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.”
- Ephesians 4:15 NKJV
Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you return to the Lord with all your hearts, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and prepare your hearts for the Lord, and serve Him only; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.”
- 1 Samuel 7:4
