A Thought-Provoking Quote To Prepare Our Hearts For Worship Tomorrow

"Whomever the Lord has adopted and deemed worthy of His fellowship ought to prepare themselves for a hard, toilsome, and unquiet life, crammed with very many and various kinds of evil." John Calvin

I love John Calvin.  In fact, should God grant my wife and I another son, it would be my honor to (with my wife's consent, of course!) to name him John Martin after two of the most significant influences on my own life and thinking about Jesus Christ - John Calvin and Martin Luther.

This quote from Calvin was new to me, but I have found myself reflecting on it much today.

I commend it to you as we prepare our hearts for worship tomorrow.  Wherever you are, as you gather with the church family where you worship, may this quote challenge you to consider your walk with Christ and what it means to be a follower of Him by taking up our cross daily.
