One of Michele's favorite quotes is:"Personal Calling Statement (perspective, courage, surrender): "I am called by God's instruction to lead as a servant and volunteer my time towards efforts for His kingdom and glory." John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. Jim Elliot "Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach." Aristotle "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forego their use." -Galileo Galilei "Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things that escape those who dream only at night." Edgar Allan Poe "The poverty of our century is unlike that of any other. It is not, as poverty was before, the result of natural scarcity, but of a set of priorities imposed upon the rest of the world by the rich. Consequently, the modern poor are not pitied...but written off as trash. The twentith-century consumer economy has produced the first culture for which a beggar is a reminder of nothing." John Berger Choose your battles wisely be but not sparse for this world is in need of a stand to be taken. “To reach a port we must sail, sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it. But we must not drift or lie at anchor.” Charles Spurgeon's challenging words: "It is a good rule never to look into the face of man in the morning till you have looked into the face of God – an equally good rule is always to have business with heaven before you have any business with earth. Oh, it is a sweet thing to bathe in the morning in the love of God! To bathe in it so that when you come forth out of the ivory chambers of commun...ion where you have been made glad, your garments shall smell of the myrrh and aloes and cassia of holiness! Do we all attend to this? I am afraid we are in too much of a hurry, or we get up too late. Could we not rise a little earlier? If we could steal even a few minutes from our beds, those few minutes would scatter their influence over the entire day. It is always bad to start on a journey without having looked to the harness and to the horse’s shoes. And it often happens that the time saved by omitting examination turns out to be a dead loss when the traveler ahs advanced a little on his journey. Not one minute, but a hundred minutes may be lost by the lack of a little attention at first! Set the morning watch with care if you would be safe through the day. Begin well if you would end well. Take care that the helm of the day is put right. Look well to the point you want to sail to, then whether you make much progress or little, it will be so far in the right direction. The morning hour is generally the index of the day." "Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go and do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive." Gil Bailie "Don't doubt in the dark what God has shown you in the light." "The spiritual life cannot be made suburban. It is always a frontier, and we who live in it must accept and even rejoice that it remains untamed." Howard Macey Charles Spu...Expand for more
