Sometimes things simply go wrong! If you are having that sort of a week then take heart by reading what Eric Liddell once said, “Circumstances may appear to wreck our lives and God’s plans, but God is not helpless among the ruins.” Just remember – God wins in the end!

C. T. Studd once challenged believers to remain unwavering in their faith – to refuse to compromise in a world that pressures believers to conform by saying: “Don’t be a chocolate soldier that melts in the heat of battle—stand firm, fight for the faith, and never compromise!” It’s still a challenger for believers today – so never be tempted to water down you faith in search of popularity.

If you are going through difficult times at the moment then this quote from Billy Graham might help you. “Mountaintops are for views and inspiration, but fruit grows in the valleys. It is in suffering that we draw closest to Christ.”

Are you are a radiator or a drain? Are you an encourager or a moaner? Well whatever you are, think on this -“Encouragement is oxygen to the soul. A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success” – D.L. Moody. Does that clarify your thinking?

Here is an important reminder from Billy Graham – “Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion—it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.”

This week be inspired by this quote by Billy Graham – “The cross shows us the seriousness of our sin—but it also shows us the immeasurable love of God. Because Jesus died and rose again, we can be forgiven, transformed, and live in victory.”

Just how would you describe Jesus? Charles Spurgeon summed it up very well when he said, “Jesus is the God whom we adore, the all-sufficient merit of His atonement is our song, and the never-ceasing faithfulness of His love is our confidence.”

Here’s a powerful quote by D.L. Moody on serving others: “The measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many men he serves.” May we be encouraged this week to follow Christ’s example of humble service, loving and serving one another in His name!

Here’s an inspiring quote by D.L. Moody:

“The love of God is like the ocean: you can see its beginning, but not its end.”

Let this truth remind us this weekend that God’s love is infinite, unchanging, and available to all who will receive it.

D L Moody once said, “The world is a wrecked vessel. God has given me a lifeboat and said to me, ‘Moody, save all you can.'” Pray that we can be inspired by this quote to take our responsibilities to love the lost very seriously indeed.
