[Faith-talk] Quotes for Sunday, July 17, 2016

[Paul Smith]

Hello and greetings to you all on this Lord's Day.  I hope that your 
day is going well as you read this message, by God's matchless grace 
and His providential care.

Here are today's two quotes for your consideration, pondering and reflection.

Use your gifts to exercise care for others.

When we draw near to God, our minds are refreshed and our strength is renewed.

And that will do it for today.  Before I close, however, I pray that if 
you read this post before you depart for your respective houses of 
worship, that you and your fellow congregants will get a good word from 
the Lord as imparted to you by your pastors and/or Sunday school 
teachers, and with that word firmly implanted in your hearts, minds and 
souls, you will apply the same to your individual lives as the gracious 
Holy Spirit enables.  Ditto for you who read this message after you 
arrive home from church.

Until tomorrow when, Lord willing more of these quotes and possibly 
news tidbits will be presented, I am your obedient servant of the One 
who lived an earthly existence, died to pay for your sins and mine, and 
now lives forever to bring us His salvation and peace, Oil of Gladness.
