REVRAG for September 11
“Everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first”.
--Matthew 19:29,30.
“A good many are kept out of the service of Christ,
deprived of the luxury of working for God,
because they are trying to do some great thing.
Let us be willing to do little things. And let us remember
that nothing is small in which God is.”
-- D.L. Moody
“Only one life, will soon be past,
only what's done for Christ will last.”
-C.T. Studd
“I see Jesus in every human being.
I say to my myself, this is hungry Jesus,
I must feed him. This is sick Jesus, This
one has leprosy or gangrene; I must
wash him and tend to him.
I serve Jesus because I love Jesus.”
-Mother Teresa
"Do all the good you can,
by all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as you ever can.”
--John Wesley
