For many of you who may read this, you may know this of me already... but i am a huge fan of " " quotes. No, not just the marks we put on paper, but what is between these " ". I sometimes ask myself, what if everything that I said was in " "?... Think about it. If every recorded action thought and well word was written down for the world to read, would you have a few "noteable quoteables"? Or would you be ashamed of what the world would read?
So as I sit here and think, even my very process could be quoted... What do you mean?... Well, in the Bible it says that we will be judged for every careless word.
Matthew 12:36
"But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken."
Throughout the Bible we see also that it tells us to take every thought captive. Why? Because your thoughts become actions and then... well it is all down hill from there.
So just in case God makes everything public one day, wouldn't you want to be quoted about things that are note worthy rather than "Stinkin' Thinking"...
So here is a quote for you from me:
"Live your life in a quotable fashion so when your story is read they don't only read words but they see actions." - Jim Elliott- 2007
May this be our prayer out of Psalms 19:14...
"May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer"
