1 | The Final Analysis | Rom 13:8 | stjohn | 201601 | ||
"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; ...Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; ...Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; ...Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; ...Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; ...Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; ...Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; ...Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; ...Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway." Adapted from Mother Teresas enlarged and framed sign, hung in the front lobby of her Nirmala Shishu Bhavan, the children’s home in Calcutta. |

2 | The Final Analysis | Rom 13:8 | lionheart | 201602 | ||
stjohn, That just about says it all brother. Oft times our discipleship will be called into question by the world and at times even by other believers. But at the end of the day there are two individuals who know for sure whether or not we are disciples of Jesus Christ or not and that's us and God. Thanx for those priceless words of encouragement. In Him, lionheart |

Amen my lionhearted Brother: If I may add though, at the end of the day, truth be told, He, is the only one who really knows for sure! :-) Jeremiah 17:9 Though I know we can say for certain, "my name is written in the Lambs Book of Life", it is only because He is faithful and true, and His word can be trusted above all things. He says so, so, I know it's true. Thank you Brother for being here along with the many others at the forum, to help me along in my growth and knowledge of our Lord and His Word. The joy of fellowship I find here is beyond measure. I truly don't know were els I could find so much devotion to the righteous exposition His Word! :-) A really big thanks, and God bless to one and all! John More from our dear Sister, Mother Teresa: "There is always the danger that we may just do the work for the sake of the work. This is where the respect and the love and the devotion come in - that we do it to God, to Christ, and that's why we try to do it as beautifully as possible." Let us pray that we can be as faithful as she was, too the nth degree! ...Priceless indeed! |

stjohn, Won't argue with you on that brother. But let me tell ya, it's hard (not impossible when we're walking in fellowship with God.) for us to deceive ourselves when God is speaking. I think a person will know in thier heart of hearts if they are born again or not. If someone goes into a professed relationship with God with a Jeremiah 17:9 heart that person may fool people and I'll even stretch it a bit and maybe themselves but in the end God isn't ever fooled and I think He's quite effectively communicated that. Bless you much brother. In Him, lionheart |
