Quotes on the Poor in Spirit

''Humility is letting others gain the spotlight before you. Humility is not desiring man's praise. Humility is desiring God to have all the glory. Humility is thinking of others, and their desires before you. Lord give me a spirit of humility.''
 -Joshua Dotson
''Many of us may easily think the greatest Christian is the one who knows the most, but how about the one who gives the most? To take in knowledge is a gift, but to give to others, to be Charitable, Loving, Kind, and Gracious to all, how much greater even is this. In the end, on Judgement, we shall be judged more by our actions than what we know to be true.''
 -Joshua Dotson
'' There is more love in the simple words of Jesus to his earth mother, than in many of the brightest theologians.''
 -Joshua Dotson
 ''Going to church without truly loving Christ in your heart won't avail you anything in heaven. Many times, the simple, love Christ more, because religion to them is Jesus, not just their understanding of it. Lord help us love you with simplicity as a child yet comprehending as best we can, those mysteries of You, that want us to understand by your Divine Revelation.''
 -Joshua Dotson
'' I have a personal relationship with Christ. If religion to you, just means where you go to church, have a very bad view of it. True religion is not something theological we believe, but how respond to the calls in our life from our Lord Christ Jesus.''
 -Joshua Dotson
'' It is a very good thing to grasp theology, it is a better thing, to understand it, it is the greatest thing to apply it to your life, in how you can love Christ more.''
 -Joshua Dotson
