POWERFUL WORDS

POWERFUL WORDS

we looked at the story of Jonah in sunday school today. i haven’t read it in a very long time so it was refreshing to read it again. one verse in particular jumped out at me. i think it’s self explanatory, so i’ll just post it for you to chew on…

Those who cling to worthless idols
forfeit the grace that could be theirs.
Jonah 2:8

ouch.

some other words to chew on that i just came across…

A world without reference to Christ — this is the message of Toronto — is a world that, sooner or later, finishes by being against man. The history of the past, even recently, shows this. One cannot push God away without finding oneself refusing man.
~Pope John Paul II in reference to World Youth Day 2002
