Scripture at Sunrise 03.24.2022

“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in Me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.” -John 15:5

“Everything that is not God depends totally on God.” -John Piper via DesiringGod

Scripture at Sunrise 12.17.09

“Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God…”  -2 Corinthians 3:5

“Ever plan for yourself in simple dependence on God. It is nothing less than self-idolatry to conceive that we can carry on even the ordinary matters of the day without his counsel. He loves to be consulted…Consider no circumstances too clear to need his direction. In all thy ways, small as well as great; in all thy concerns, personal or relative, temporal or eternal, let Him be supreme. Who of us has not found the unspeakable ‘peace’ of bringing to God matters too minute or individual to be entrusted to the most confidential ear?”  -Charles Bridges
