I don’t remember creating a collection of “good quotes” but that was the header of a file on my computer I didn’t recognize. I opened it up to find exactly three quotes; all of which were made by my dad. I wasn’t surprised that they lived up to the rather boring but factual file name.
Dad on the discipline he received growing up:
“Mom used nothing bigger than a flip flop, dad used a rod of correction that was floppy.”
On the key ingredient to sacrifice:
“When we love God more than anything else, what will we not give Him?”
On the first reference of love in the Bible (Gen. 22.2):
“The first time love is mentioned in the Bible it’s not a love of country, it’s not the love of a spouse, but it’s of a father’s love— towards his son.”
Perfect Quotes
Jesus quotes from the Book of Psalms more than any other part of the Old Testament. It’s interesting to think that Jesus wasn’t really quoting, He was just repeating Himself. A quote is defined as (and I quote), “..a group of words from a text or speech with an indication that one is not the original author or speaker.”
Everything Jesus says is worth quoting but anything Jesus says twice deserves our special attention.
