This collection of quotes that I have gathered over the last year is called ÒFORTY8Ó because it is the eighth one of these that I have compiled and it is meant to be read over a period of 40 days, whether that be the season of Lent or during any other season of the year when you want to carve out some space for reflection and listening. These quotes are from some of the books, websites and blogs I have been reading, and they reflect some of the truths that I want to sink deeper into my heart. I read somewhere that ÒChristianity is one beggar telling another beggar where he found bread,Ó and this collection is my simple offering of some bread for your journey as you listen to GodÕs voice in this world.
