“Every attempt to reflect upon the Atonement, to study it, to embrace it, to express appreciation for it, however small or feeble it may be, will kindle the fires of faith and work its miracle towards a more Christlike life. It is an inescapable consequence of so doing. We become like those things we habitually love and admire. And thus, as we study Christ’s life and live his teachings, we become more like him.” MayChristStudyFireTeachingConsequenceMiracleEmbraceAppreciationAdmireAtonementKindlesExpress Appreciation Author:Tad R.

“A soul so pitiably forlorn, If such do on this earth abide, May season apathy with scorn, May turn indifference to pride; And still be not unblest- compared With him who grovels, self-debarred From all that lies within the scope Of holy faith and christian hope; Or, shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost.” IfsMayStillsSoulSelfEarthChristianLyingTurnsLostFirePrideHolySeasonsIndifferenceApathyCoastScopeScornKindlesForlornChristian Hope Book:The Complete Poetical Works of William Wordsworth: Together with a Description of the Country of the Lakes in the North of England Source: The Complete Poetical Works of William Wordsworth: Together with a Description of the Country of the Lakes in the North of England
