Following Jesus Into Broken Places

August 22, 2021 |

“Anything you are passionate about, you talk about!  A man who never says a word about the lady that he loves ought to be questioned.  A lady who is too embarrassed to bring up or ever mention the name of the one she says she loves ought to be questioned, because that which you are passionate about you talk about.  There is no greater message and there is no greater person than the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ!  God has invited us to be passionate about the gospel because we are passionate about Him.  We are in desperate need today for passionate Christians who don’t need to apologize.”

Dr. Tony Evans

“God uses men (and women) who are weak and feeble enough to lean on him.”

Hudson Taylor

“If a commission by an earthly king is considered an honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?”

David Livingston

“Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth!  Sing to the LORD, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day.  Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!”

Psalm 96:1-3

“God REVEALS His glory to all nations in order to RECEIVE glory from all peoples through worship.”

Operation World View

“You did not choose me, but I chose you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide…”

 Jesus (John 15:16)

Taste and See That the LORD is Good!

“There is no such thing as a Secret Service Christian. Being a Christian is not a private and personal thing.”

R.C. Sproul

“God’s grace calls you to suffer and it calls you to wait, but it never calls you to stand in your own strength or to stand alone. Ps. 34:15, ‘The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous and his ears toward their cry.’ That’s the story of the life of every believer, because you and I are never alone in our trouble. Perhaps the question is, will I recognize God’s care when it comes? God’s care comes in a variety of packages. God’s care is not always relief from circumstances, release from trouble. There are many moments in our lives when the very thing that causes us to wonder about God’s care is his care. He knows that trouble will reveal our hearts or display his glory. Often trouble is a tool of care in the hands of the One who knows best what we need. He cares; therefore, make sure your definition of his care is not too narrow.”

Paul David Tripp
New Morning Mercies, A Daily Gospel Devotional

“How can we be delivered from all our fears (v. 4)? Build an identity that boasts, not from your accomplishments or racial identity or talent or moral efforts or family, but from God (v. 2). How can we get such an identity? By not just believing in God but ‘tasting’ and experiencing God’s goodness in prayer (v. 8).”

Tim Keller
