The Grand Canyon. Can’t wait to see it up close one day.
World Cup. Passion.
There is no other event that evokes such a global passion, in every country except the U.S. that is.
Here are some great pics of what I mean.. Opening weekend - 2010 World Cup - The Big Picture - Boston.com
When the beams of the sun are contracted by a burning-glass, upon one spot, then they cause fire; so when our thoughts are concentrated on one object they warm the heart and at last burn the truth into it.” There, are many rays of light, but they are scattered. We get a little upon many things, while what is wanted is one great, truth, and so much upon it as shall fix it on the heart, and set the soul blazing with it. This is the fault of many lives; they are squandered upon a dozen objects, whereas if they were economized for one, they would be mighty lives, known in the present and honored in the future.
Charles Spurgeon from Daily Help Devotional.
Piper on Biblical Counseling
Piper’s definition of biblical counseling fromThe Journal of Biblical Counseling, Winter 2002:
God-centered, Bible-saturated, emotionally-in-touch use of language to help people become God-besotted, Christ-exalting, joyfully self-forgetting lovers of people.
