Hello, God. It's me, Mara

You know, Lord, sharing some Christian One Liners is fun. Authors are unknown but here are a few:

1. Don’t let your worries get the best of you; Remember, Moses started out as a basket case.

2. It’s easier to preach 10 sermons than it is to live one.

3. Some people are kind, polite, and oh, so sweet-spirited — that is, until you try to sit in their pews. (Ain’t that the truth – we’ve probably all seen that … ).

4.  The good Lord didn’t create anything without a purpose, but mosquitoes come close.

5.  People are funny: They want the front of the bus, the middle of the road and the back of the church. 

6. If a church wants a better pastor, it only needs to pray for the one it has.

7. We’re called to be witnesses, not lawyers or judges.

8. God Himself doesn’t propose to judge a man until he is dead. So — why should you? 

9. Peace starts with a smile.

10. Be ye fishers of men. You catch ’em — He’ll clean ’em.

11. Forbidden fruits create many jams. 

12. God doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.

13. God grades on the cross, not on the curve.  

14. God loves everyone, but probably prefers “fruits of the spirit” over “religious nuts!”

15. God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

And the greatest one — 16. The best mathematical equation we’ve ever seen: 1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given.

Above all else, Lord, we’re to remember that You are a loving God, a good God, a Friend who desires the best for us! Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” We remember there is no greater treasure than a good friend, thank You, Lord,  for being our best friend.
