"The days and times wherein we live call aloud for holiness. Oh, the pains, the care, the cost, the charge, that God hath been at, and that God is daily at, to make us holy! What do holy ordinances call for, but holy hearts and holy lives? I suppose there is nothing more evident than that the times and seasons wherein we live call aloud upon everyone to look after holiness, and to labor for holiness." ~ Rev. Thomas Brooks, 1662
This statement spoken so many years ago, still rings true for the day and age in which we live. We serve a Holy God and read a Holy Bible! Why then is there so little holiness in our personal lives? Is it not because we fail to implement His Truth to our hearts and live it out on a daily basis? May God help us to repent, consecrate our lives to Him wholly, and allow Him to conform us into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ!
