::: Quote of the Day :::
I prayed every day & every night. My faith grew very fast. I knew one thing I had to concentrate on and that was spending time learning from the bible so when I grew up, I could share & preach. When I thought about this, I felt my heart burning inside me, pushing me, telling me this is the right thing to do.

I always tell myself that I would be glad to be a martyr for Christ. That it would be an honour. But would I really be able to withstand the pain & humiliation? When I read about those who have given their lives before, I can't help but worry if I'll be able to do justice to God. It all boils down to the simple question. Do I love God enough?

I just read some stuff about John Wesley.

    Sanctification
  • Christian perfection, a life of holiness
  • a perfection of motives & desires
  • a life of victory over sin is required, constant vigilance
  • a discipline of daily devotions, self examination and a calculated avoidance of worldiness
This was what they did... hence the term 'methodists'. My God! He was striving to achieve the same things that I desire for. And all this time i've been sneering at the rigidness of 'methodist'. Our only difference is in the way we present it.

Dear God, teach me more, that I may be used by you. So that I can be used by you. So that I can throw myself into your work and lead people to you and teach about you.
