These are really great quotes :)
ReplyDeleteI really like "There comes a point where we stop talking about how bad we are and start talking about the good things God has done." Pastor Kris Vallotton (not sure if you've heard of him) talks about how God sees us as the people we are becoming, He sees our potential--not our shortcomings. It's so encouraging to see things from God's perspective. :)
Have you ever heard of pastor Judah Smith? OMGosh, he's amazing. He used to be a youth pastor, and he'd come to speak at Generation Unleashed (a huge youth conference) every year. He's now the head pastor at City Church, in Seattle. Anyways, his messages are so good. I've listened to his Purity series a few times now... and I'm actually re-listening to it again this week. All of his sermons are free for downloading online if you are interested in checking him out.

The 'Why Your Purity Doesn't Work' one is really good. I had to right click it and download it specifically to my computer in order for it to play in my iTunes :)
And now for the whole purpose of this comment ^_^
Here are a few of his quotes (I have them on my facebook)
"Your future is not ahead of you. It's within you."
"The things we think about most we end up desiring most"
"You need a vision for your life that propels you beyond momentary pleasures; a purpose that causes you to see past temptation to its consequences and compels you to choose righteousness because of its reward."
