Christian Tweets: 25 Faith Filled Sayings To Post on Twitter

Sometimes you have the kind of day where you just need a pick me up; A quick reminder that you are loved, that you matter, that you are seen. Or maybe you have the kind of day where you have been constantly reminded of God’s hand in your life. You’ve seen Him at work and are in awe and you wish you could put into words how you feel. These are the times when words, specifically God’s word, can make all the difference. When thoughts put on paper ring with so much truth that your heart knocks a little. When something you read reminds you that anything you’re feeling has been felt before and you’re not alone on this ride.

Please note that most of these drummers are in the rock/metal or gospel genre. This is because they are known for more technicality and speed. No offense to any style of music, but this is true.
