Zack,
I hear what you’re saying bro. I myself have used this quote and STILL like it and STILL agree with it for the most part. In my opinion, whoever said it, and for now I’m leaving it marked by the Assisi dude, it should say “when” necessary, not “if” like you stated.

Here’s another line I like that helps me see this better: “Christ doesnt give us a revelation so we can preach it, rather so that we can live it. When you live it you can preach it.”

Preach the gospel and revelations He gives us by living out. Then there will be that necessary time to use words He gives us to go further. I’m assuming Jesus lived it for 30 years before He felt it necessary to use The Words!!

another of my favorites is, ““wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy.” – benjamin franklin.

i typically attribute this to beer though.

Ooh, Here’s another one that I just read today from Lysa Terkeurst:

“God isn’t in the business of creating change to impress people; He is in the business of impressing on people their need to be changed.”
