Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive. (Howard Thurman)

Can a world of posers tell you to do anything but pose itself (John Elredge)

You can lose your soul, by the way, long before you die. (John Elredge)

Solomon in Ecclesiastes 1:14 says, “I have seen everything that is done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.” 

C.S. Lewis: “You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to. 

But what about you? Who do you say I am?  For me, life without Him, would not have brightness, love, joy, peace and a reason to plod onward.  Having the truth of who God is — and who I am because of Christ — deeply embedded in my mind and heart positions me for joy and peace regardless of my circumstances.  Having a relationship with Him will make you come alive.  And, as Howard Thurman stated, that is what the world needs to see, people who are alive in Him.  But, it wasn’t until I fell at his feet and called him Lord and God did my life have meaning.  One can’t be a “poser” with Jesus – He knows your heart and motivation.
