Quotes

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is giv­en, and the gov­ern­ment will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Won­der­ful Coun­sel­lor, Mighty God, Ever­last­ing Fath­er, Prince of Peace.”

“Are – are you there too, Sir?” said Edmund. “I am,” said Aslan. “But there I have anoth­er name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reas­on why you were brought to Nar­nia, that by know­ing me here for a little, you may know me bet­ter there.”

In response to my post the oth­er day, John Philpin respon­ded with a quote from his Mum. I really liked it so wanted to share it here for more people to discover.

Mom: “Remem­ber … don’t for­get to write to me at least once a week – even bet­ter – every day.”
Me: “Every day! There wont be enough to say every day!”
Mom: “You will find that the more you write the more you will have to say, because then everything is import­ant. If you only write once a month, there will be noth­ing import­ant enough to write about.”

As Abra­ham Kuyper once said, “There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human exist­ence over which Christ, who is Sov­er­eign over all, does not cry, ‘Mine!’” And rule with abso­lute suprem­acy. And though it may not seem so now, it is only a mat­ter of time until he is revealed from heav­en in flam­ing fire to give relief to those who trust him and right­eous ven­geance on those who don’t.

Even if I turn out to be wrong, I shall bet my life on the assump­tion that this world is not idi­ot­ic, neither run by an absent­ee land­lord, but that today, this very day, some stroke is being added to the cos­mic can­vas that in due course I shall under­stand with joy as a stroke made by the archi­tect who calls him­self Alpha and Omega.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that who­ever believes in him should not per­ish but have etern­al life. For God did not send his Son into the world to con­demn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 

– ‭‭John‬ ‭3:16–17‬

Pro­ductiv­ity is effect­ively stew­ard­ing your gifts, tal­ents, time, energy, and enthu­si­asm for the good of oth­ers and the glory of God.
– Tim Challies
