8 Favorite Quotes From The Book “Gentle and Lowly” (Dane Ortlund)

It’s been a while since I posted quotes from my recently finished book. This is because of this book by Dane Ortlund which is long and I want to thoroughly enjoy it. These days I rarely read long books. However having gone through Gentle and Lowly, I’ll reconsider reading longer ones.

As usual, if you enjoy these quotes, please get yourself a copy of either physical or digital format. You can purchase your copy by clicking this link.

“The battle of the Christian life is to bring your own heart into alignment with Christ’s, that is, getting up each morning and replacing your natural orphan mind-set with a mind-set of full and free adoption into the family of God through the work of Christ your older brother, who loved you and gave himself for you out of the overflowing fullness of his gracious heart.“

(Videos) Unboxing Evangelistic Graduation Gifts for My Daughter and Her Classmates

It’s graduation season and as parents, it will be our first time to experience it as (other than ourselves) our daughter moves up from kindergarten to Grade 1. It has been a year of helping her along with her auntie and a tutor as she learned how to read and write. We thank God that those fruits of labor (with much prayers) for our only child are now a reality. We want this milestone to be memorable by being there as she goes on stage and by giving her gifts. And only for her but for her classmates too. Seeing them and their parents when I picked up my daughter after school, gave me some insights from them as I interact and observe them. I believe this is a evangelistic opportunity that we shouldn’t miss.
