Quotes from Christian Literature

The weekend seems to whiz by so quickly. I was running here and there, and attend church, have a couple of meals with a few people, recuperated by sleeping, did some work and it's already 2318 hrs Sunday night 22-Jan-2006 already. I was deeply impressed to write on something, however, I lacked sufficient time his weekend. I apologize that I couldn't turn it around quickly enough this weekend, as I don't want it to be a rush job. So I'll save that for next week.

As for this week, I like to share with you excellent quotes from some of the books I am currently reading up. Enjoy :

God did not call us to work the majority of our lives just to survive, earning a paycheck and existing from weekend to weekend. God created each person for specific reasons, taskes and purposes and He equiped each one of us with the perfect combination of talents, skills and abilities required to find fulfillment for our lives.

- Larry Julian, God is My CEO

God's wisdom, your spiritual core, provides your source of strength, purpose and direction and balances and leverages your skills and abilities. Your character is the aggregate sum of who you are as you couragrously follow through and do what is right over time. Your productivity is the legacy you leave behind.
