God Rarely Allows A Person To See

Earnestness Is Not By Any Means Everything; It Is Very Often A Subtle Form Of Pious Pride Because It Is Obsessed With The Method And Not With The Master.

The Great Enemy Of The Life Of Faith In God Is Not Sin, But The Good Which Is Not Good Enough. The Good Is Always The Enemy Of The Best.

Naturally, We Are Inclined To Be So Mathematical And Calculating That We Look Upon Uncertainty As A Bad Thing...certainty Is The Mark Of The Common-sense Life. To Be Certain Of God Means That We Are Uncertain In All Our Ways, We Do Not Know What A Day May Bring Forth. This Is Generally Said With A Sigh Of Sadness; It Should Rather Be An Expression Of Breathless Expectation.

Let The Attitude Of Your Life Be A Continual Willingness To "go Out" In Dependence Upon God, And Your Life Will Have A Sacred And Inexpressible Charm About It That Is Very Satisfying To Jesus. You Must Learn To "go Out" Through Your Convictions, Creeds, Or Experiences Until You Come To The Point In Your Faith Where There Is Nothing Between Yourself And God.

Never Focus Your Eyes On The Obstacle Or The Difficulty. The Obstacle Will Be A Matter Of Total Indifference To The River That Will Flow Steadily Through You If You Will Simply Remember To Stay Focused On The Source.
