"Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. . . . I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” —Jesus (Matt. 12:34, 36-37)

Maybe this would be a good time to practice what we could call the Packer Liturgy? 1. I am a child of God. 2. God is my Father. 3. Heaven is my home. 4. Every day is one day nearer. 5. My Savior is my brother. 6. Every Christian is my brother too.

J. I. Packer on the 6 Things You Should Tell Yourself Every Day

“This is the Christian’s secret of a Christian life and of a God-honoring life.”

“Satan dreads nothing but prayer. His one concern is to keep the saints from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, he mocks our wisdom, but he trembles when we pray.” ― Samuel Chadwick (1860–1932)
