Quote of the Week

I don't blog often, but I figure I can at least have a quote of the week. I have been thinking about this "quote" a lot over the past few days.

Pertaining to Scripture:
"Take every word as spoken to yourselves. When the word thunders against sin, think thus: "This means my sins;" when it presseth any duty, "God intends me in this." Many put off Scripture from themselves as if it only concerned those who lived in the time when it was written; but if you intend to profit by the word, bring it home to yourselves: a medicine will do no good, unless it be applied." - Thomas Watson, from Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life, by Donald S. Whitney
