Who Are You Boasting In?

February 19, 2010

“The Christian’s whole desire, at its best and highest, is that Jesus Christ be praised. It is always a wretched bastardization of our goals when we want to win glory for ourselves instead of for him.” — D.A. Carson

    Wow. That is strong language but so true.When we seek glory or boast in ourselves we accomplish nothing… I boast of my Saviour of what he does and can do and what He will do if we let Him. Nothing is impossible with Him!! Without Him I can do nothing..

    Wow, this is a great quote! As much as I would like to say that it is always all about Jesus, so many times i am looking for that next chance to “come up” in the Christian scene so to speak. In these moments, it is not all about Jesus but about what people think of me when I talk about Jesus…

    Thanks for posting this quote!
