Clippings from my Kindle « Shannon McDermott


Nearly a year ago I got my Kindle. A few months after that, I figured out how to create highlights. Here are a few Clippings from my Kindle.


God is the only Being in this world who knows fully why He created me. Therefore, He directs my life. Husbands cannot give us purpose. God may choose marriage for part of our ministry. Our future husbands are not mapping out the course of our lives; instead, they are mates designed to join us on the path God has for us (and vice versa). Cheryl McKay, Finally the Bride


I bethought me that a bird capable of addressing a man must have the right of a man to a civil answer; perhaps, as a bird, even a greater claim. George MacDonald, Lilith


If two madmen had ever agreed on anything they might have conquered the world. G. K. Chesterton


I often say I’d rather be alone than with the wrong person, even if the wrong person feels right for a while. It’s not worth getting in the way of, or delaying, God’s true calling on my life. Cheryl McKay


I realized that every woman should hold out for a prince – especially if her Father is the King. Christopher Pence


God is a romancer. No one can match His love. No one in this world can love me more than Him. None. My search to find a love greater is fruitless. God’s love is unmatched. We search for many things to fill our God-sized holes. Only He can fill. Only He can fulfill. Only He can reach. Cheryl McKay, Finally the Bride


She fetched him meat and drynke [drink] plenty, Lyke [like] a true wedded wyfe [wife]. Ancient ballad of Robin Hood’s Merry Men


God tells me things on a need-to-know basis. Apparently, He doesn’t think I need to know anything. Cheryl McKay


I say you shall yet weary

Of the working of your word,

That stricken spirits never strike

Nor lean hands hold a sword.

G. K. Chesterton, The Ballad of the White Horse


Follow the passions of your heart, as the Lord allows. Cheryl McKay


And the whole world turned over and came upright. G. K. Chesterton


You, my dear Lord, are all I need. For today. Please don’t change my life one day too soon. Cheryl McKay
