“If (we) hope to produce work that will bear good fruit, we must draw our life from the true source – our living Savior. He is real. He is present. But all too often we reduce him to an abstraction, giving him intellectual assent, but not our hearts.” ~Michael O’Brien
Karl Barth, one of the great philosopher-theologians of the 20th Century, was asked after a lecture at the University of Chicago in 1962 if he could sum up his life’s work in a single sentence. “Yes,” he replied: “‘Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.'”
Mitch, thank you for sharing your walk of faith along with a perfect scripture and beautiful quote! Sunday blessings!!
You too, Rick!
Mitch, my favorite scripture! It’s why I named my set of Devotionals “Branches.”
Yes, Jesus loves me – loves all of us.
As Keith Green put it, “He is divine, and you are de branch.”
lol!
