Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of Psalm 43, God offers us a dynamic invitation: Send out your light.Prolific singer-songwriter Sandra McCracken believes we each have the opportunity to hear and answer this invitation. This book is written in three parts: part one is the becoming, the creation, how God makes us and gives us an identity. Part two is the disorientation of loss, displacement, and the dark night of the soul. Part three is reorientation, how God brings us through the darkness and illuminates our path with Scripture, sending us out to take his light to others. This has been the shape of Sandra McCracken’s life. Through it all, songs and Scripture have been there to light the way, helping her respond to God’s call. How will you respond to God’s call to send out his light?
Download or read book The Webster Bible written by and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 923 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The language of the Bible has no inconsiderable influence in forming and preserving our national language. On this account, the language of the common version ought to be correct in grammatical construction, and in the use of appropriate words. This is the more important, as men who are accustomed to read the Bible with veneration, are apt to contract a predilection for its phraseology, and thus to become attached to phrases which are quaint or obsolete. This may be a real misfortune; for the use of words and phrases, when they have ceased to be part of the living language, and appear odd or singular, impairs the purity of the language, and is apt to create a disrelish for it in those who have not, by long practice, contracted a like predilection. It may require some effort to subdue this predilection; but it may be done, and for the sake of the rising generation, it is desirable. The language of the scriptures ought to be pure, chaste, simple, and perspicuous, free from any words or phrases which may excite observation by their singularity; and neither debased by vulgarisms, nor tricked out with the ornaments of affected elegance. Noah Webster, 1833

Download or read book Everything We Need for Life and Godliness written by Sara E. Gulino and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we read the Psalms? We read them because we find comfort in them. We identify ourselves with the ups and downs of the writer, his feelings and emotions. They show the struggles of the writer with Gods activities, how long before you. The psalmist says, and our cry to the Lord mixes with his. They show his fears when he writes: though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death and our fear becomes one with his. The theologian reads them because of their prophetic and Messianic teachings. But, do we ever read them because they teach us how we relate to God? See how the Psalms teach us what a person in a right relationship with God does in his relationship with Him. Experience a thrilling, growing, and often convicting journey in God while being richly blessed as you learn what it means: He establishes the work of our hands and see the Apostle Pauls example. We know that our times are in Gods hands and see how God created time for our salvation and why He determines our days. We consider all precepts right and see the problems of the pick-and-choose theology. We are devoted to God and see how were little burning bushes walking the streets of this world. We trust in God and see how little we doand much more.
