That Seems Familiar

A friend sent me a collection of quotes from posters, greeting cards, many other sources. You’ve probably heard most of them repeated by a friend, an acquaintance, or a pastor (in a sermon). You might even have seen one on a refrigerator magnet. Though they might be familiar, most of them state a Biblical truth in a simple (and often profound) way. Some of them might even provoke you to delve deeper into God’s Word. It could happen!
 
I hope they inspire and uplift your week.

  • Don’t let your worries get the best of you;
    remember, Moses started out as a basket case.
  • Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited
    until you try to sit in their pews.
  • Many folks want to serve God,
    but only as advisors.
  • It is easier to preach ten sermons
    then it is to live one.
  • When you get to your wit’s end,
    you’ll find God there.
  • Opportunity may knock once,
    but temptation bangs on the door forever.
  • God Himself doesn’t propose to judge a man
    until he is dead.
    So why should you?
  • Peace starts with a smile.
  • Coincidence is when God
    chooses to remain anonymous.
  • Don’t put a question mark
    where God put a period.
  • God doesn’t call the qualified,
    He qualifies the called.
  • God promises a safe landing,
    not a calm passage.
  • The Will of God never takes you to where
    the Grace of God will not protect you.
  • If God is your co-pilot, swap seats!
  • Prayer: Don’t give God instructions,
    just report for duty!
  • Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass,
    it’s about learning to dance in the rain.
  • You can tell how big a person is
    by what it takes to discourage him.
  • The task ahead of us is never as great
    as the power behind us.
