Well i was able to finish my book, One Month To Live! I really enjoyed this reading and recommend it to those who want a quick devotional book. Enough of a commercial just wanted to share some quick quotes from the book that pushed me:• Life isn’t measured by the number of ybreaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

• A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.
• Your problem is not that you don’t love God enough. It’s that you don’t. understand how much He loves you.
• Learn to attack the issues without attacking each other.
• The only people with whom you should try to get even are those who have helped you.
• He’s (God) much more interested in our character than in our comfort.
• Ironically it takes a lot more faith to be an atheist then it does to believe in God.
• All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen.
• How does one become a butterfly?...you must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.
• The key is to remember that at the center of every problem is a purpose, a revelation of God at work in our lives.
• Prayer should be our first response not our last resort.
• The difference between school and life? In school, you’re taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches you a lesson.
• Miracles never take place until you acknowledge the situation is impossible without God.
• Studying the bible isn’t enough; we have to put it into our lives for it to be a conviction.
• I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything , but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.
• If we touch one life, we may make the difference between life and death-physical as well as spiritual.
• We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.
• Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.
• Nothing great ever happens without passion.
• So what did Jesus do when He knew He only had one month to live? He loved completely the people He was closest to.
