I'd like to meet:

All to Jesus I surrender;
All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.
All to Jesus I surrender;
Humbly at His feet I bow,
Worldly pleasures all forsaken;
Take me, Jesus, take me now.
All to Jesus I surrender;
Make me, Savior, wholly Thine;
Let me feel the Holy Spirit,
Truly know that Thou art mine.
All to Jesus I surrender;
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power;
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
All to Jesus I surrender;
Now I feel the sacred flame.
Oh, the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory, to His Name!
~Judson W. Van DeVenter

You shine brighter than the brightest star
Your love purer than the purest heart
You shine
Filling us with courage and strength to follow You
Why should I fear man
When You made the heavens?
Why should I be afraid
When you put the stars in place?
Why should I lose heart
When I know how great You are?
Why should I give up
When Your plans are full of love?
In this world we will have trouble
But You have overcome the world!

Your life is not defined by what has happened to you, nor is it defined by what you have done. Your life is defined by who you are in Christ.

We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
~ Stephen Covey ~

God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.
~ John Piper ~

I have a great need for Christ,
I have a great Christ for my need.
~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon ~

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
~ C.S. Lewis ~

We were deceived by the wisdom of the serpent,
but we are freed by the foolishness of God.
~ St. Augustine ~

Love is not something you feel. It's something you do.
~ David Wilkerson ~

Love is a fabric that never fades, no matter how often it is washed in the waters of adversity and grief.

Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold me with Thy powerful hand;
Bread of heaven,
Feed me till I want no more,
Feed me till I want no more.
~ William Williams ~

"God has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
~ Micah 6:8 ~

How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God!
How great is the sum of them!
~ Psalm 139:17 ~

Music:

Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD.

I'll praise my Maker while I've breath;
And when my voice is lost in death.
Praise shall employ my nobler pow'rs;
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last,
Or immortality endures.
Happy the man whose hopes rely
On Israel's God! He made the sky,
And earth, and sea, with all their train;
His truth for ever stands secure;
He saves the oppressed, He feeds the poor,
And none shall find His promise vain.
~ISAAC WATTS (1674-1748)~

Sing a new song to the Lord!
Let the whole earth sing to the Lord!
Sing to the Lord; bless His name.
Each day proclaim the good news that He saves.
Publish His glorious deeds among the nations.
Tell everyone about the amazing things He does.
~ Psalm 96:1-3 NLT ~

Let the godly sing with joy to the Lord,
for it is fitting to praise Him.
Praise the Lord with melodies on the lyre;
make music for Him on the ten-stringed harp.
Sing new songs of praise to Him;
play skillfully on the harp and sing with joy.
For the word of the Lord holds true,
and everything He does is worthy of our trust.
He loves whatever is just and good,
and His unfailing love fills the earth.
~ Psalm 33:1-5 NLT ~

Books:

I guide my life by the Bible, and I tell you there is no book like it. It is a miracle of literature, a perennial spring of wisdom, a wonder of surprises, a revelation of mystery, an infallible guide of conduct, and an unspeakable source of comfort.
Pay no attention to people who discredit it, for I tell you that they speak without knowledge. It is the Word of God Himself. Study it according to its own direction. Live by its principles. Believe its message. Follow its precepts.
No man is uneducated who knows the Bible, and none is wise who is ignorant of its teachings.
~ Samuel Chadwick ~
Your words are what sustain me. They bring me great joy and are my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God Almighty.
~ Jeremiah 15:16 NLT

How sweet are your words to my taste; they are sweeter than honey. Your commandments give me understanding; no wonder I hate every false way of life. Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path.
~ Psalm 119:103-105
A Bible which is falling apart usually belongs to someone who is not.
~ Charles H. Spurgeon

God did not give us the Scriptures to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives.
~ D.L. Moody
In regard to this great book, I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good Savior gave to the world was communicated through this book. But for it we could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man's welfare, here and hereafter, are to be found portrayed in it.
~ Abraham Lincoln ~
