The More You Fulfill Yourself, The Less

God Seems To Have A Delightful Way Of Upsetting The Things We Have Calculated On Without Taking Him Into Account. We Get Into Circumstances Which Were Not Chosen By God, And Suddenly We Find We Have Been Calculating Without God; He Has Not Entered In As A Living Factor. The One Thing That Keeps Us From The Possibility Of Worrying Is Bringing God In As The Greatest Factor In All Our Calculations.

We Are In Danger Of Forgetting That We Cannot Do What God Does, And That God Will Not Do What We Can Do. We Cannot Save Ourselves Nor Sanctify Ourselves, God Does That; But God Will Not Give Us Good Habits, He Will Not Give Us Character, He Will Not Make Us Walk Aright. We Have To Do All That Ourselves.

Do Not Expect God Always To Give You His Thrilling Minutes, But Learn To Live In The Domain Of Drudgery By The Power Of God.

Never Consider Whether You Are Of Use; But Ever Consider That You Are Not Your Own But His.

The Christian Church Should Not Be A Secret Society Of Specialists, But A Public Manifestation Of Believers In Jesus.
