I trust you had a wonderful Lord's Day! I had the opportunity to preach in Talpos on Sunday and we thank God for His help. I wanted to just put down a few quotes from H. Robb French. He is one of the original founders of the entire Hobe Sound Ministries, which includes Hope International Missons. These quotes are taken from the book "Pioneer, Prophet, and Prayer Warrior", compile by Anna Talbott McPherson.

"This blessed experience of full salvation- it doesn't sour, it doesn't ferment. And God wants to prove it to the world by putting the pressure on."

"Dead to this world. Do you know what the word "dead" means in the Greek? It means "dead". do you know what it means in French? "Dead." When you're dead, you're dead! Dead to self, to position, to future ambitions. Howe we act under pressure tells whether we're dead or not. How do you act when you can't have your own way? When someone else gets the credit for what you've done?"

May we live holy lives! God wants to show to the world and other believers as well what sweet fragrance a holy and completely sanctified life brings forth. He does it by putting on the pressure! May God help us to be filled and keep filled with His Spirit.
