If You Died Tonight

"Intellectually we all know that we will die, but we do not really know it in the sense that the knowledge becomes a part of us. We do not really know it in the sense of living as though it were true. On the contrary, we tend to live as though our lives would go on forever." ~ Frederick Buechner

If You Died Tonight by Big Daddy Weave

Desire Christ

"Thou, O Christ, art all I want
More than all in thee I find!
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick, and lead the blind;
Just and holy is thy name,
I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am
Thou art full of truth and grace."

~ Charles Wesley

Things Permitted

He can only come and give us the richest blessings of transformation and strength and power by allowing us to come into difficult places, even so difficult that we stretch our hands to Him and He can thus come in. Thus we meet the things He permits, welcome them, use them, climb up by them, make them so many ladders to the heights of God." ~ Phineas Bresee

His Strength

"Do not strive in your own strength; cast yourself at the feet of the Lord Jesus, and wait upon Him in the sure confidence that He is with you, and works in you. Strive in prayer; let faith fill your heart-so will you be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might." ~ Andrew Murray

Pray for Others

"We are never more like Christ than in prayers of intercession." ~ Austin Phelps

Question Your Assumptions

"Begin to take charge of your mind; feed it with God’s truth; question your assumptions; ask God to help you think more clearly and more Biblically. Make your mind your servant instead of your master." ~ Gary Thomas

God Answers Prayer

"We never know how God will answer our prayers, but we can expect that He will get us involved in His plan for the answer. If we are true intercessors, we must be ready to take part in God’s work on behalf of the people for whom we pray.” ~ Corrie ten Boom

Pray First

“If we could learn to pray first and plan afterward, how different would be our homes,our churches, our Bible studies. Maybe we are planning in one direction and God’s will is in another direction.” ~ Evelyn Christenson

Bathe Everything in Prayer

You Are An Ambassador for Christ

‎"To a significant degree, the lost world determines its view of God based on the lives of those who profess to know Him. I wonder how many people have been dissuaded from believing in Christ because something they have heard or experienced from those of us who bear the name of Christ."

~ Nancy Leigh DeMoss

What Is Your Reason for Living?

"When we make Christ our reason for living, no matter what or who we lose, our reason for living still lives! " ~ Debra White Smith
