A Christian's Word

It should never occur to anyone to doubt our [Christian--ed] word either. The Christian's word should be inviolate. Some years ago, I heart Paul Little, at the time head of InterVarsity Fellowship, tell of a conversation that he once had with a college principal. A young woman had come to an agreement with him to be on the faculty for the coming year. She was a professing Christian, and he had taken her word for it. She was to sign the contract upon her arrival on campus. Shortly before the beginning of the semester, he received a letter from the woman. She had been offered a better-paying position and had decided to take it. She had prayed about it, she said, and had peace about it. Said the college principal bitterly, looking at the gap in his faculty and the problem he would now have in finding a replacement at that late date, "Great! She had the peace; I had the pieces." This young woman knew nothing of even common integrity, much less Christian character. "Who shall dwell in thy holy hill?" David asked the Lord. "He that sweareth to his won hurt, and changeth not" (Ps. 15:1, 4). When a Christian gives his word, he should do what he says for the simple reason that he would not dream of doing anything else. He should be completely dependable. It is a fruit of the Spirit." Exploring Galations: An Expository Commentary by John Phillips page 194. Found on Google 5 November 09.

From John Wesley

Quote: "Servants, as they must do their Master's work, so they must be for any work their Master has for them to do: they must not pick and choose, this I will do, and that I will not do; they must not say this is too hard, or this is too mean, or this may be well enough let alone; good servants, when they have chosen their Master, will let their Master choose their work, and will not dispute His will"
-----John Wesley's Covenant Service

Modesty

This is from a conservation Jewish view. I think it is important for men and women to emphasize their soul in what they wear. The audio will explain.

Having a Bad Day?

If your day is rotten and burdensome, this might be a comfort to you, as it was to me.

Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay. And will You turn me into dust again? (Job 10:9)

From "Handfuls On Purpose"
Then it is not for the clay to resist the wonder working hand of the Divine Potter. He will not reduce the clay to dust; the potter cannot fashion by dust into a useful vessel. When we have been brought low by the weight of affliction, so low that we feel as if we had been brought back to that condition of soul in which we were at first when God, by His Spirit, began to operate upon us. Let us believe that His purpose is to make us into "another vessel" more meet for His service, or in other words, when God's vessels are reduced again to clay it is that they might be refashioned for higher and more honorable work. Job's latter days is an evidence of this.

Who knows what work God will do to and through us.
