The Spirit of Christmas

"The spirit of Christmas needs to superseded by the Spirit of Christ. The spirit of Christmas is annual; the Spirit of Christ is eternal. The spirit of Christmas is sentimental; the Spirit of Christ is supernatural. The spirit of Christmas is a human product; the Spirit of Christ is a divine person. That makes all the difference in the world." ~ Stuart Briscoe

Yesterday, Tomorrow...

‎"I do not advise that we end the year on a somber note. The march, not the dirge, has ever been the music of Christianity. If we are good students in the school of life, there is much that the years have to teach us. But the Christian is more than a student, more than a philosopher. He is a believer, and the object of his faith makes the difference, the mighty difference. Of all persons the Christian should be best prepared for whatever the New Year brings. He has dealt with life at its source. In Christ he has disposed of a thousand enemies that other men must face alone and unprepared. He can face his tomorrow cheerful and unafraid because yesterday he turned his feet into the ways of peace and today he lives in God. The man who has made God his dwelling place will always have a safe habitation." ~ A.W. Tozer, The Warfare of the Spirit

Regard People...

"We must learn to regard people less in light of what they do or omit to do, and more in the light of what they suffer." ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Creator?

"Could such a great symphony as the universe have no conductor?" ~ Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
