A Quote To Remember

As I sat and listened to H. B. Charles preach, one thing jumped out at me the most.

As one who for so many years doubted my salvation in Christ and struggled with legalism, this one quote stuck in my head and I’m glad it didn’t leave.

It is one I want to keep in the forefront when remembering great quotes I’ve heard.

“What God begins [your salvation] by the Spirit cannot be completed by the flesh.”

~in reference to Philippians 1:6

God finishes what HE starts.

Praise. The. Lord.

It was a fresh drop of water to a soul who thirsts after Jesus, my Living Water.
