Altar everything in life

Let's play with spelling. Becoming a Christian both alters and ‘altars’ everything in our life. We alter our life and put everything on the altar to God. The Christian life is one of continual ‘altaration’. I want to ‘altar’ my job (or hobby, or home, or whatever). There is nothing that, with God’s help, we can’t ‘altar’. Try a few sentences of your own.

God doesn't call the qualified


"God doesn't call the qualified,
He qualifies the called."
- Unknown

God doesn't call people who are qualified.
He calls people who are willing,
and then He qualifies them.
- Richard Parker

God examines both rich and poor,
not according to their lands and houses,
but according to the riches of their hearts.
- St. Augustine of Hippo

We must alter our lives in order to alter our hearts,
for it is impossible to live one way and pray another.
- William Law

"May you be strengthened with all power,
according to his glorious might,
for all endurance and patience with joy,
giving thanks to the Father,
who has qualified us to share
in the inheritance of the saints in light."
Colossians 1:11-12

Creator of heaven and earth,
make me clean, physically and mentally healthy,

and pure of heart.
God make that I can be justified to be selected
to enter into Your kingdom.
