I CAN RESIST EVERYTHING EXCEPT TEMPTATION.
— Oscar Wilde
Only a sight of his glory, and nothing else, will truly satisfy God’s people.
The hearts of believers are like a magnetized needle which cannot rest until it is pointing north. So also, a believer, magnetized by the love of Christ, will always be restless until he or she comes to Christ and beholds his glory.
— John Owen

About Me
- Webutante
- United States
- I'm a southern Christian conservative with a degree in civil & environmental engineering and a passion for the truth of God's Word, writing, hiking, investing, fly fishing, cooking and the great outdoors. My favorite tech invention = spellcheck. There are no such things as rights without responsibility, a free lunch, cheap grace, man-made climate change, successful government engineering, or figuring out when life begins. We're hurling towards the abyss with only One Life-Line: it's not botox, a "living" Constitution, celebrity president, or making nice with our dark enemies.. Meanwhile, God gave us His Word, His Son, Grace Upon Grace, family/friends and the greatest country in the world to live--if we can keep it .Comments are closed but you can email me at: webutante07 at gmail dot com.

"The hearts of believers ...." This week, have been ruminating on how God knows what is in my heart; on how, when choosing who truly desires heaven, the Lord simply looks into hearts:
"The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord
Searching all internal parts of his being."
Proverbs 20:27
I find this terrifying. I know the machinations of my own heart.
1 Timothy 1:15
'Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom I am the worst.'
Greg, Jesus didn't come to save pure hearted people cause there are nono, but those just like you and me.....
Of which I am often the worst too....
Ah, the perfect, comforting reply! Thank you. My terror and frustration are reduced. You do not always have to find the perfect reply. I do not expect it. But, it is fun when it happens. :)
