Christian one liners


Someone sent me an e-mail with some Christian one liners. You may have seen these before, but I thought they were funny and in many of them, there is a lot of truth. Enjoy these!

***

Many folks want to serve God, but only as advisers.
*
It's easier to preach ten sermons than to live one.
*
When you get to your wit's end, you'll find God lives there.
*
Opportunity may knock once, but temptation bangs on the front door forever.
*
Quit complaining about your church. If it was perfect, you couldn't belong.
*
If a church wants a better pastor, it only needs to pray for the one it has.
*
Some minds are like concrete, thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
*
A lot of church members singing 'Standing on the promises' are just sitting on the premises.
*
We're called to be witnesses, not lawyers or judges.
*
Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.
*
Don't put a question mark where God put a period.
*
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
*
God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.
*
He who angers you, controls you.
*
The task ahead of us is never as great as the Power behind us.
*
You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him.

I love these. At school there is one posted in the ladies room: When you are down to nothing, God is up to something.

I read that every day.

Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous. I like that one. I haven't heard that one before.
