"When you come to worship, take heed that you do not come in your own strength, for there is more required in sanctifying the name of God than your strength is able to carry you on in. And therefore, act your faith upon Jesus Christ every time you come to worship God"
Jeremiah Burroughs,

I haven't heard of Jeremiah Burroughs before. I hope we will hear more from him.
oh, jeremiah Burroughs... I've been working through one of his books off and on for the last TWO years. that's right. TWO years. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment- one of the most challenging books I've ever read. It's a continual "Do you think or feel x, y,z" and he comes back with the Godly answer that puts you into your place. I'll try to post on my blog when I'm done with the FINAL chapter, almost there.
