Bringing Quotes (page 40)
True intercession involves bringing the person, or the circumstance that seems to be crashing in on you, before God, until you are changed by His attitude toward that person or circumstance.

Oswald Chambers
Tell the angels no, I don’t wanna leave my baby alone

That’s a chance I’ll take

Heaven can wait
Michael Jackson

How dare you try to take these things, because they are mine!
Terry Prachett
