“The Way You See It” - Your Starbucks Quote
As most of y’all know, on the side of every Starbucks cup is a section called “The Way I See It.” It is simply a random quote by some random person.
Simple right? Well, the catch for The Way I See It is simple as well: thousands upon thousands of people read these quotes daily.
Thus:
If you could put any quote on a Starbucks cup, what would you put? And why?

“I sentence you to three years imprisonment, under the firm, and solemn, and God-given conviction, that what you require is three months at the seaside.”-G.K. Chesterton, from “The Club of Queer Trades”
as to the why- it provokes interesting thought and conversation about the effectiveness of governmental justice. (see this article : http://antarcticdevelopments.no-ip.org:6800/propjets/index.php?blog=5&cat=24 )
“Forget yourself, forget all about yourself. Of course you are not good enough, you never will be good enough. The Christian way of salvation tells you this, that it does not matter what you have been, it does not matter what you have done…It does not matter if you have almost entered into the depths of hell, if you are guilty of murder as well as every other vile sin, it does not matter from the standpoint of being justified with God. You are no more hopeless than the most respectable self-righteous person in the world…Would you like to be rid of this spiritual depression? The first thing you have to do is to say farewell now once and for ever to your past. Realize that it has been covered and blotted out in Christ…Blessed be the Name of God for such a wondrous salvation for desperate sinners.” ~Martyn Lloyd-Jones
I chose this quotation because it may lift up the soul of someone who feels despair and point him to Christ.
