There is none good but God!

April 27, 2010 by Christina

“The devil never tempts us with more success, than when he tempts us with a sight of our own good actions.

It is a very dangerous thing to think too much of the good we have done, lest we should imagine, that God is in our debt, and to expect our reward here, and lest God should give us our desires. “

Thomas Wilson, Maxims of Piety and of Christianity, page 115.

“…there is no one who does good, not even one.”  Pslams 14:3b

    Well, Christina, I’m officially resigning myself to the fact that you are my alter ego. Just finishing my morning prayers, and having prayed along this very thought as we endeavor to start a new church plant-

    Thanks for affirming what God was impressing on my heart just now.

    Blessings!

      Really, Diane? How funny is that? Well, praise the Lord! I am truly excited for you all, and join you in praying for His guidance!

      Blessings to you my dear sister!
