Living Without Reservation

"Dear brothers and sisters, we must always remember that the time is short and nothing should be put off for tomorrow.  We must live each day as though it were our last.  We must work the works of Him who has called us as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work (John 9:4).  Let us put our hand to the plow and not look back.  For the joy set before Christ, He endured the cross, despising the shame.  For the joy set before us, let us also endure the suffering and weariness that often accompany true discipleship and run with endurance the race that is set before us (Hebrews 12:1-2).  If we are to die in Christ without regrets, we must live for Christ without reservation!"
 
-Paul Washer

Great Quote

"Many pastors criticize me for taking the Gospel so seriously. 
But do they really think that on Judgement Day, Christ will chastise me, saying,
 'Leonard, you took me too seriously'?"
 
-Leonard Ravenhill
