Resolved to live with all my might while I do live, and as I shall wish I had done ten thousand ages hence.
Jonathan Edwards
He who obeys a command will meet no harm, and the mind of a wise man will know the time and way.
Ecclesiastes 8:5
The Revised Standard Version
Don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.

The distinctive element in Christian ethics is the primacy of love, the self-giving love that is known fully to Christian faith in the cross of Christ.
John Bennett
Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”
Luke 17:11-19
The New King James Version
We’re not to figure things out. We’re to work things out. The Lord has already figured it out.

I feel it is far better to begin with God, to see His face first, to get my soul near Him before it is near another. In general it is best to have at least one hour alone with God before engaging in anything else.
E. M. Bounds
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Matthew 19:23-24
The King James Version
The Christian is not one who has gone all the way with Christ. None of us has. The Christian is one who has found the right road.

Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable, and receives the impossible.
Corrie ten Boom
“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
Luke 6:37-38
The English Standard Version
The heart benevolent and kind
The most resembles God.

The devil has power to suggest evil, but he was not given the power to compel you against your will.
Cyril of Jerusalem
What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
James 2:14-17
The New International Version
Apart from Christ we know neither what our life nor our death is; we do not know what God is nor what we ourselves are.
Blaise Pascal

Living is death; dying is life. On this side of the grave we are exiles, on that, citizens; on this side, orphans; on that, children; on this side, captives; on that, freemen; on this side disguised, unknown; on that, disclosed and proclaimed as the sons of God.
H. W. Beecher
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep. A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will abandon the sheep because they don’t belong to him and he isn’t their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock. The hired hand runs away because he’s working only for the money and doesn’t really care about the sheep. I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me, just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I sacrifice my life for the sheep. I have other sheep, too, that are not in this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They will listen to my voice, and there will be one flock with one shepherd.”
John 10:11-16
The New Living Translation
An agnostic found himself in trouble, and a friend suggested he pray. “How can I pray when I do not know whether or not there is a God?” he asked. “If you are lost in the forest,” his friend replied, “you do not wait until you find someone before shouting for help.”

Anguish and heartbreak may not be distributed very evenly around the world, but they are distributed very widely. If we knew the facts, we would very rarely find someone whose life was to be envied.
Harold Kushner
Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
Micah 7:7
The King James Version
The kindest people are those who forgive and forget.

Have we not one God, and one Christ, and one Spirit of grace poured out upon us? And is there not one calling in Christ? Why do we divide and tear asunder the members of Christ, and raise up strife against our own body, and reach such a pitch of madness as to forget that we are members of one another?
Clement of Rome
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold In settings of silver.
Proverbs 25:11
The New King James Version
We need Jesus every moment of every day. To say anything else is ludicrous.

It behooves Christian doctrine to be consolidated by years, enlarged by time, refined by age, and yet, withal, to continue uncorrupt and unadulterated, complete and perfect in all the measurements of its parts.
Vincent of Lérins
Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
Ecclesiastes 11:9
The English Standard Version
Envy is a coal come hissing hot from hell.

The spiritual life is not a thing without emotions. The saints weep at the thought of their own sins and the goodness of God; their hearts beat to the bursting point within them, they shout and dance for joy; they die to see God.
Jean Mouroux
for the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him.
2 Chronicles 30:9
The King James Version
God is here. Wherever we are, God is here. There is no place, there can be no place, where He is not.
