Notes
Verses
{“Teach me your way, O LORD, and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.” Psalm 86:11 NIV}{“No, we don’t know, Lord,” Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!” John 14:5-7 NLT}{“I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever.” Psalms 86:12 NIV}
Quotes
Brennan Manning : When I get honest, I admit I am a bundle of paradoxes. I believe and I doubt, I hope and get discouraged, I love and I hate, I feel bad about feeling good, I feel guilty about not feeling guilty. I am trusting and suspicious. I am honest and I still play games.
(The Ragamuffin Gospel); C.S. Lewis : The Psalms are poems, and poems intended to be sung: not doctrinal treatises, nor even sermons.
(Reflections on the Psalms); Soren Kierkegaard : It is the normal state of the human heart to try and build its identity around something besides God.
(Sickness Unto Death); Madonna : My drive in life comes from a fear of being mediocre. That is always pushing me. I push past one spell of it and discover myself as a special human being but then I feel I am still mediocre and uninteresting unless I do something else. Because even though I have become somebody, I still have to prove that I am somebody. My struggle has never ended and I guess it never will. (Vogue Magazine); Larry Crabb : If I am to walk with God, one thing is immediately clear: we must go in the same direction. And God doesn’t negotiate. He invites me to join Him. He will not go with me on my side trips. (Finding God);
