For every one look at your sins, take ten looks at Christ." -Robert Murray McCheyne. Wednesday, February 07, 2007. Today at lunch, we were working through this book.

Actually, there's one God and He has three guys in His head.". Posted by David at 1:27 PM. 10 Things ...

Perhaps one of the best takes on Jesus' application of verse 9 comes from Kent Hughes:. One thing is sure: our worldly wealth will go somewhere - we cannot hang on to it. One day our most precious possessions will fit in a hospital drawer. Posted by David at 5:23 PM. Death by abo...

For every one look at your sins, take ten looks at Christ." -Robert Murray McCheyne. Saturday, March 24, 2007. Praying out of a book?

For every one look at your sins, take ten looks at Christ." -Robert Murray McCheyne. Wednesday, May 02, 2007. Brief praise and Quote 07. I was blessed by the following quote - yet another touch of God's love - on dealing with difficulties others bring on us:.
