Emphasis Preaching Journal

James admonishes us to be "doers of the word." John Wesley had this for his rule of life:

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.

Abraham Lincoln used to say that he always plucked a thorn and planted a rose wherever he thought a rose would grow. There are few places where a rose will not grow!
