WE MADE IT! 100TH POST!

For my 100th post, I'd like to share with you a site that I have joined thanks to Warrior-4-Christ from Teen Perspectives, and thanks to my new blogging friend Keilah! <----- Click there to be taken to the 101 Days of Praise site.

It's for young women/ladies. I want to encourage you to join! 101 Days of Praise is a challenge of giving God praise for 101 days. This is something that I've been trying to do in my every day life so I thought it'd be neat to join. It's encouraging to see other Christian ladies coming together to praise God!

Instead of taking the time to sniff the roses, why don't you take the time to praise God Almighty? If you are out of practice, tarry no more. He's waiting for you. If you are in the habit of taking special time to praise God, I encourage you to try and incorporate that in your daily life. Such as doing the dishes. Do it unto the Lord. That is in and of itself an act of worship. There are no boundries to God's kingdom. Church doesn't start in your own house and only within the church building. Church is HERE and NOW on earth, and how we live our lives. God is Lord over heaven and everything below heaven. He's Lord over the temporal as well as the eternal! I think we forget that sometimes. I know I do.

So thank you Keilah <----- click there if you want to see Keilah's regular blog. for encouraging us ladies, and for presenting us with this great challenge!

Much Love,

~Elisabeth Darcy (a.k.a. Lissie)

Quotes

C. S. Lewis:

1~"Mercy, detached from justice, becomes unmerciful."

2~"The trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed. "

3~"Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing had yet been done..."

4~"All that we call human history--money, poverty, ambition, war, prostitution, classes, empires, slavery--[is] the long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy. "

5~"Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point."

Chesterton:

1~"Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of a readiness to die. “He that will lose his life, the same shall save it,” is not a piece of mysticism for saints and heroes. It is a piece of everyday advice for sailors or mountaineers. It might be printed in an Alpine guide or a drill book. This paradox is the whole principle of courage; even of quite earthly or quite brutal courage. A man cut off by the sea may save his life if he will risk it on the precipice.

He can only get away from death by continually stepping within an inch of it. A soldier surrounded by enemies, if he is to cut his way out, needs to combine a strong desire for living with a strange carelessness about dying. He must not merely cling to life, for then he will be a coward, and will not escape. He must not merely wait for death, for then he will be a suicide, and will not escape. He must seek his life in a spirit of furious indifference to it; he must desire life like water and yet drink death like wine."

"What embitters the world is not excess of criticism, but an absence of self-criticism."

"The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried"

Charles Spurgeon:

1~"Thus there will be three effects of nearness to Jesus-humility, happiness, and holiness. May God give them to thee, Christian!"

The Avett Brothers (A Band):

1~"So you want to be in love like the movies
But in the movies they're not in love at all
And with a twinkle in their eyes
They're just saying their lines
So we can't be in love like the movies

Now in the movies they make it look so perfect
And in the background they're always playing the right song
And in the ending there's always a resolution
But real life is more than just two hours long

Well you can freeze frame any moment from a movie
Or run the whole damn thing backwards from reel to reel
But I don't see one single solitary light technician
Or one single camera in this moonlit field"
