You believe in God for your soul. Believe in him about your property. Believe in God about your sick wife or your dying child. Believe in God about your losses and bad debts and declining business.-- Charles Spurgeon
"Look at your Lord hanging, look at him hanging, and giving you a directive from that kind of judicial bench which is the cross. Look at him hanging there, and concocting a medicine for you in your illness from his own blood. Look at him hanging there." Augustine
"The Jews always looked back to this work that God had done in space and time, and therefore they were linked to something that was tough enough to bear the weight of life, for they knew that God was not far away. Their affirmation was not just a poetic expression. Since God had acted in past history, the people knew they could trust Him for the future." ~ Francis Schaeffer, No Little People, No Little Places, commentary on Ps. 136:1-4.
I shouldn’t complain. My trials are fewer than my sins. - Joshua D Jones@BlueCheezWhisky
