"There is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still." -Betsie TenBoom
"I waited patiently for the Lord; He turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire;
He set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.
He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord."
-Psalm 40:1-3
(Anne's Random Thought: My life - thoughts, words and actions -
must all point to GOD... the purpose of my life must be not to make
people more like ME, but more like GOD.)
"Lord, I give up all my own plans and purposes, all my own desires and
hopes, and accept Thy will for my life. I give myself, my life, my
all utterly to Thee to be Thine forever. Fill me and seal me with
Thy Holy Spirit. Use me as Thou wilt, send me where Thou wilt, work
out Thy whole will in my life at any cost, now and forever. Amen."
-Prayer of Betty Scott Stam
"I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing
with the glory that will be revealed in us."
-Rom. 8:18
"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but
not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not
destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus,
so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. ...
Therefore, we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting
away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light
and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that
far outweighs them all."
-2 Cor. 4:8-10, 16&17
(Anne's Random Thought: !!!)
"Whoever is certain of whom the last hour belongs to need not fear
the next few minutes."
-Helmut Thieleke
"You have been reminded that Jesus Christ is your Lord and that you
are God's servant. You are loved, you are forgiven, you are
empowered, and now you are sent to live as God's faithful one. Amen."
-Benediction from "A Guide to Prayer"
"To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before
his glorious presence without fault and with great joy -- to the only
God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus
Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen."
-Jude 24&25
