It's Sunday and as I get ready to worship I stumbled on these two quotes (not related) in my journal. One from an old...er...former pastor at Va. Beach Community Chapel and one from a late pastor, writer, and prophet. Both are memorable.
"If you want something you've never had before, you must do something you've never done before."
- Larry Shoafe
"A real Christian is an odd number anyway. He feels supreme love for One whom he has never seen; talks familiarly to Someone everyday he cannot see; expects to go to heaven on the virtue of another; empties himself in order to be full; admits he is wrong so he can be declared right; goes down in order to get up; is strongest when he is weakest, richest when he is poorest, and happiest when he feels the worst; he dies so he can live; gives away so he can keep; sees the invisible; hears the inaudible; and knows that which [is unknowable]."
-A.W. Tozer (excerpt from The Pursuit of God)
