I'm reading this book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan. I thought I would share this quote with you.
"Are you willing to say to God that He can have whatever He wants? Do you believe that wholehearted commitment to Him is more important than any other thing or person in your life? Do you know that nothing you do in this life will ever matter, unless it is about loving God and loving other people He has made?
True faith means holding nothing back; it bets everything on the hope of eternity. I know that this whole swimming-upstream, pursuing-Christ, taking-up-your-cross thing isn't easy. It's so hard, in fact, that Jesus said the road is narrow and few will actually find it...Like the parable of the sower, don't assume you are the good soil; don't assume you are the one of the few on the narrow way."
Another thing Francis Chan mentions in his book....
Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 and in place of "love" put your name. Do you fit that?
Are you patient? Are you kind? You feel like a liar saying that, don't you?
------
Let's encourage one another to become full-hearted Christians! Let's love others as Christ loves the Church! Fall in love with God and let the things of the world pass. Let go of those things and follow Him!
