How long must we wait until the fulfillment of the word of the Lord ... Will it be too late? Will we, or our children's children, be subsumed by the dragging, ever-present seduction of the glittering culture surrounding us? When the Lord calls, will anyone desire to listen? -- Thom Lemmons
There is so much out there in the world to entice and seduce us. We get lulled by a false sense of security that we can handle it, we are strong in our faith after all.....aren't we???
We, as believers are just as susceptible to the "call of the wild".
Only through a close relationship with Jesus Christ can we overcome the temptations of this world. We need to pray, we need to soak in God's Word, we need to live the life He designed for us.......
A stiff apology is a second insult. -- G. K. Chesterton
Have you ever been in a situation where you have had to apologize for something, and you don't really feel like apologizing, but do it just to maintain peace?
That is a stiff apology!
If you are saying sorry.....let it come from your heart. There is no point saying you are sorry if your apology doesn't echo what your heart feels. And if your heart doesn't feel it, then search your heart...you might be surprised what you find in there.
