In His Presence

"You have made known to me the paths of life; you fill me with joy in your presence." Acts 2:28 I have decided to start a blog because I have been finding so many other blogs so inspiring over the last few days. Hopefully, this one will be inspiring to you!

Here's a quote from a book I'm reading:

"When someone asked William Booth, founder of The Salvation Army, the secret of his enormous success, Booth remained silent for several moments. Finally, with tear-filled eyes, he said, 'There have been men with greater brains or opportunities than I, but I made up my mind that God would have all of William Booth there was.'

Several years later when General Booth's daughter heard about her father's comment regarding his full surrender to God, she said, 'That wasn't really his secret - his secret was that he never took it back.'

And that's the secret we all need to discover: We may never be William Booth, but all of us can, in response to God's grace and mercy in saving us, give Him our all - and never take it back."
The Power of Prayer and Fasting by Ronnie W. Floyd, pg. 128.

Just felt like I should share.

In Faith,
Rebecca

P.S. This is our 3rd day off in a row! An extra-extra long weekend!
