Don’t read these statements as familiar quotes that are usually written in red. Let them soak deep into your heart and mind. Let them add life to you. Be better with truth.
"I only read one statement of Jesus, but I couldn’t go any further in my reading. It was a statement I had read hundreds of times before, but this time it hit me differently. Deeper. More impacting. I love when that happens. I realized I often take a statement like that from Jesus for granted. Jesus—the Son of God—said something. Something so profound, so life-giving, and yet it has become so familiar to me that I almost gloss over it when I read. This time I stopped. I stopped and thought about the many other truths Jesus shared—often in a single sentence—which are life-changing. Perhaps some of these will be meaningful to you. Read through the list—memorize a few of them (you probably already have many of them). But don’t read them as familiar quotes that are usually written in red. Let them soak deep into your heart and mind. Let them add life to you. Be better with truth." —Ron Edmondson
