Hey everyone!
I hope you're all doing well. I've been so busy with school and assignments I've hardly had any time to breathe let alone blog! School is almost over for me, about 4 more weeks. I'm incredibly excited for summer. I love school, but this is the only year that I've wished summer would come faster. What are your guys' plans for the summer? Comment me below and let me know. :)
Today I'm going to be posting some quotes. I know, I know, not that exciting. BUT. I found this fantastic website! I'm going to give you guys the URL to it at the bottom. It's super informative and I just love it. SO I'll be posting the quotes and saying something about each of them.
Jesus did not come to make God's love possible, but to make God's love visible.
- Unknown.
WOW! Isn't that so true? Jesus died for all of us so we could know God's infinite love for us. He loves us so deeply.
Jesus Christ is a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves with despair.
- Blaise Pascal, Pensées.
Isn't that incredible? We should approach God without pride and humble ourselves without despair. God wants the true us. He wants us to see that too.
Many are willing that Christ should be something, but few will consent that Christ should be everything.
- Alexander Moody Stuart.
Now, THIS almost made me cry when I first saw it. Doesn't that just make you stop and reassess the way that YOU look at God?
This is the website. Enjoy! :) http://www.beliefnet.com/
Happy Thursday!
These are great quotes Becky! They make me really think... :) Oh yes and you asked what we are doing in the summer? I'm going to Joy Bible Camp! (:
ReplyDeleteWell brought out! Quotes are good, though you must be wary of some. Some times they sound right, but it`s actually wrong. Like this one:

You posted it and you got it right when you said without dispair, but this quote says with... :S I just wanted to point things like that out... We should not have to dispair before the LORD, for he loves us dearly and is willing to forgive if only we ask and beleive he will do it. this again, is just myself speaking what I beleive, but I may be wrong.
PS: I plan to hang out with friends, sleep, eat, and hopefully btreath a little... I just realised, I didn`t really think about where I'd put GOD... I forget to make him my priority, but I will try... :S
