I am sure each of us know the importance of Bible Study, but what have others said about Bible Study?
“If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, he will be in the last place the remainder of the day.”—E. M. Bounds
“Wind up thy heart towards heaven in the beginning of the day, and it will go the better all the day after. He that loseth his heart in the morning in the world, will hardly find it again all the day. O! Christians, let God have your morning meditations.”—Thomas Watson
“The first hour of the morning is the rudder of the day.”—Henry Ward Beecher
“If I have had any success in life, I attribute it to the habit of giving the first two hours of each day to Bible study and prayer.”—Lord Earl Cairns, Lord Chancellor of England
How will your words be remembered regarding Bible Study?
Just a thought,

As many of you know I am a quote hoarder. I have a collection of quotes scattered throughout my journal, planner, Evernote files and Onenote files. I am constantly looking and saving great quotes to stir my mind. A one line quote should be something that stirs our thinking. They are not to be a cure-all, but instead a few words to bring us out of our comfort zone and into a great sense of creativity.
Below are a few of my favorite quotes I have collected. If you would like the entire set of the quotes in a PDF document, you can click here to open and then print or download the PDF – Some of My Favorite Quotes

If you have made it this far, you should get a prize. Thank you for taking a moment of your day to view the quotes. I hope they are able to benefit you as they have benefited me.
Just my thoughts,


What is a Quote? – A quote is nothing more than a short thought by man speaking a truth or causing one to think more deeply than he has before.
As some of you may know, I am a quote addict. I have a journal and an Evernote file full of quotes on religion, business, life, parenting, marriage, money and much more. In fact, every morning I text a few friends a challenging quote of the day just to encourage others to expand their thinking and to encourage them.
Below are several of my favorite quotes on religion. They are mean to challenge your thinking. Enjoy.
