There are famous quotations that have become a part of our daily lives. Sometimes we even get confused as to the source - is it from The Bible? from Shakespeare? I'll bet there is a favorite of yours that I haven't mentioned in the ones I listed these past two days. Do feel free to share it with us!
Yesterday I quoted John Lennon and indeed many great sayings come from songwriters. Think of a favorite lyric and the meaning behind it. Think about how powerful some song words have been to you.
Encouraging statements are the ones that stick with me the most. Former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt once made a very encouraging statement that is like an anthem to me: “The purpose of life is to live it." Indeed.
Perhaps the most encouraging of all statements for me is one from Blessed Paul the Apostle in his letter to the Romans. Saint Paul said "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." To that I'll simply say, "Amen."
