Getting of at the fence



"It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes.
What matters most is getting off.
You cannot make progress without making decisions."
- Jim Rohn
"I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot.
Would that you were cold or hot!
So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot,
I will spew you out of my mouth."
Revelation 3:15-16
Me dear God,
let me not want to compromise somewhere in between.
Give that I get sufficient understanding to take the right decisions.
Give me also the power to undertake the right steps to be accepted
 
as a full follower of Christ
and a truly loving son of YOU  my God
.

Be not afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still


"Be not afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still."
- Chinese Proverb

"Behold the turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out."
- James Bryant Conant

"Someone asked Jesus, 'Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?'
He said to them, 'Make every effort to enter through the narrow door,
because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.'"
Luke 13:23-24

Lord, give that I continue to make progress in this life
and that I will succeed to go through the narrow gate
and so will be allowed to enter in your kingdom.
