The very first, and the inspiration for this blog

I am reading a book right now: Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper. It's a good one so far. At the beginning, John Piper talks about a painting that was in his kitchen growing up. It said:

"Only one life,

'Twill soon be past;

Only what's done

for Christ will last"

So, I have been reading about not wasting our lives, and how the cross is most important. How to love someone is to let them know their need for a savior, not to make them feel happy or good about themselves. It's been a difficult pill to follow, but good. So, this is a goal: to fill my life with loving like Christ.
