A Favorite Quote from Beth Moore


I just read this quote yesterday for the first time, but it rings so true in my heart and my life and resonates so deeply in my spirit, it has already become one of my all-time favorite quotes:
"I am so frantic not to veer from the path for the rest of my days that I have become maniacal about seeking wholeness in Christ. I hope to pursue His sanctification through and through with total abandon, no matter what the future holds." (Beth Moore, from the "When Godly People Do Ungodly Things" Bible Study Workbook)

Hello Mel:)

Very inspiring quote.

But I think it is quite tough to follow unless one is totally devoted and dedicated and has a firm determination,unwavering faith and absolute trust in God.

Fantastic quote.

Best wishes:)
Joseph

Good morning, Joseph! (Well, it's morning here, but it's not morning there, is it?) So I guess I should say, "Good day, Joseph!" :) I'm so glad you like the quote, that's great! :) Have a wonderful day with your wide open eyes that are always looking for new stories to share and new wonders to behold!

I didn't shoot the picture. I found it on the internet. It's beautiful, isn't it? I don't think I own a camera that would capture the beauty of a sunset or a sunrise like that. :)

Hi Mel,
I'm afraid this quote makes my feeble efforts blush. The line - "I am frantic not to veer," reminds me of our first love of Christ; may I get more frantic!
God bless,
Fred
