“For, until men feel that they owe everything to God, that they are cherished by his paternal care, and that he is the author of all their blessings, so that nought is to be looked for away from him, they will never submit to him in voluntary obedience; nay, unless they place their entire happiness in him, they will never yield up their whole selves to him in truth and sincerity.”G. Mark Sumpter

Amen, Mark. Calvin was sooo good in showing remind us, showing us, that our all comes from God....every breath, our faith, belief, will, ability, repentance, hope....everything.
"What do you have that you did not receive, and if you have received it, why do you boast...?", says Paul. Such is the source and of our assurance and joy. Such puts us to bed at night - get's us up in the morning - moves us throughout the day. Amen.
- Matt
