Made snowflakes, made hearts, made the cherry hand pies for Valentine’s …

“God wants worshipers before workers; indeed the only acceptable workers are those who have learned the lost art of worship.”

Today’s piece was a fun one! Anyone else listen?

Chapter 7: The Freedom of the Will

“God will take nine steps toward us, but He will not take the tenth. He will incline us to repent, but He cannot do the repenting for us. It is of the essence of repentance that it can only be done by the one who committed the act to be repented of.”

Brilliant section!

“We are saints by calling, our teachers keep telling us, and we are permitted to infer from this that there is no reason to seek to be saints by character.”

“By ‘instant Christianity’ I mean the kind found almost everywhere in gospel circles and which is born of the notion that we may discharge our total obligation to our own souls by one act of faith, or at most by two, and be relieved thereafter of all anxiety about our spiritual condition.”

Oh. My. Oh. My. 😳😳😳

Ahh!! I am at the point in the book where I cannot read fast enough!!! 😱😂😱😂

“To believe on Christ savingly means to believe the right things about Christ.”

Such a profound chapter! I highlighted most of Chapter 4: How Important is Creed?

“I think I love God more than I did, and the more I love him, the more I trust in him. I want to be what he would have me to be. Let us both strive to have no will, but God’s. God will take care of us.”
Such sweet, good good little orphaned children!!

“The trouble is that the whole “Accept Christ”attitude is likely to be wrong. It shows Christ applying to us rather than us to Him. It makes Him stand hat in hand, awaiting our verdict on Him, instead of our kneeling with troubled hearts, awaiting His verdict on us. It might even permit us to accept Christ by an impulse… at no loss to our ego, and no inconvenience to our usual way of life.”

Have you read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs to your kids?

Watch my little funny!

Today’s listen was such a perky and beautiful composition. Loved it. 🥰
