Reflections on Change

"The Word of God is living, and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing . . . and able to sift the thoughts and intentions of the heart." Do you want to see the Spirit change lives? Wield the sword of the Spirit. He will begin by using it to change your life. Allow the Spirit to make His Word a spontaneous focus of your every day conversations. "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer."

"How will a young man purify his walk? By taking heed to the Word of God."

When I think I am strong enough to do what God has called me to do, failure is at the door. When I admit that I am too weak to do what He has called me to do, His grace becomes all the strength I need. And the glory is rightfully given to Him.

 If after twenty years of persevering prayer, God answers the prayers you have for those you love, which of those years of prayer would have been wasted years? Which years would you regret? Persevere in prayer!!!! Day by day come before the throne of grace. He is able. He is willing. Admit that you are helpless and come before His throne that you may receive the gracious, merciful help of the omnipotent God of love..
