Quiet time TAKEAWAY:
This Christmas, give deep thought to what God has given you… Pause to Praise Him!
My NOTES:
– Four times in Haggai the prophet tells us, “Give careful thought to your ways…”
– Zephaniah 1:12 says: ‘At that time I will search… and punish those who are complacent, … who think, “the LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.”’
“If I’m not cognizant that I’m nothing, (apart from my own sin), that all that I am and have is from God, I will lose my joy. For whatever a man trust in, from that he expects his joy.”
Valley of Vision paraphrased
“So I ask myself, what do I have to give to God for Christmas?
Do I search my heart and give him my praise, or busily entertain myself?”
Jesus Confidential paraphrased
