Thought for the Day

Faith is more than thinking something is true.
Faith is thinking something is true
to the extent that we act on it.

Key to a Joy Filled Life

"Looking back with thanksgiving,
Looking around with grace,
Looking forward with hope.

Each of these is a conscious decision to focus on what God has done, what He's doing now, and what He will yet do."

Deep Thoughts

"The great causes of God and Humanity are not defeated 
by the hot assaults of the Devil, 
but by the slow, crushing, glacier-like masses 
of thousands and thousands of indifferent nobodies.

God's causes are never destroyed by being blown up, 
but by being sat upon."


G.A. Smith, Book of the Twelve Prophets. 
Expositor's Bible (1956) 4:573
