inspiration via quotes

Yes, this is a long over due post... just a second. *runs and gets her quote book*  I mentioned posting some quotes on here, and I got some prodding, so you asked for it ;)

I do believe quotes are one of my favorite things ever! *happy sigh* 

"Jesus is everything, if it weren't for Him, I'd have no goodness at all." -Jackie Pullinger 
-----
“Oh, it's delightful to have ambitions. I'm so glad I have such a lot. And there never seems to be any end to them-- that's the best of it. Just as soon as you attain to one ambition you see another one glittering higher up still. It does make life so interesting.”  
-Anne of Green Gables
-----
“I have one desire now - to live a life of reckless abandon for the Lord, putting all my energy and strength into it.”  -Elisabeth Elliot
-----
“Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.” 
 -Louisa May Alcott
------
 “I've got the key to my castle in the air, but whether I can unlock the door remains to be seen.” 
 -Louisa May Alcott

entering into Lucia's 
lucia, etc.


"I have but one passion - it is He, it is He alone. The world is the field and the field is the world; and henceforth that country shall be my home where I can be most used in winning souls for Christ." 
-Count Zinzindorf
-----
“Wouldn't it be fun if all the castles in the air which we make could come true and we could live in them?” -Little Women
-----
“I'd rather take coffee than compliments just now.”  -Little Women
-----
“Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It's splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”  -Anne of Green Gables



(I don't have a specific reason for thinking this photo is true, but when I look at this Hebrews 12:2

"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." )


p.s. you can win a camera here!!!
