    Good advice for Rick Perry.

    This came up as I was working on a sermon series on 2 Corinthians.  This quote fits right in with the study.  

    “Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present. We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the field God has assigned to us, a field that reaches even to you.”

    Just had a great laugh to myself. This advice is the exact opposite of how the Pharisees and Sadducees lived.

    Great Quote! Going to spread the word (with proper credit of course).

    …for the sheer blessing and joy of it and from the fullness of a heart great blessed and highly favored by God. Yes!

    I like the quote. It makes me think of those that say Christians are stingy and don’t donate anything. However, as Christians, we’re commanded to give in secret.

     In other words, act like an atheist.
