The One Thing That Remains Is Looking

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.

God Has Frequently To Knock The Bottom Board Out Of Your Experience If You Are A Saint In Order To Get You Into Contact With Himself. God Wants You To Understand This Is A Life Of Faith, Not A Life Of Sentimental Enjoyment Of His Blessings. ... "though He Slay Me Yet Will I Trust Him" - This Is The Most Sublime Utterance Of Faith In The Whole Of The Bible.

It Is A Tremendous Freedom To Get Rid Of All Self-considerat Ion And Learn To Care About Only One Thing-the Relationship Between Christ And Ourselves.

We Are Not Sent To Do Battle For God, But To Be Used By God In His Battles.

We Have To Pray With Our Eyes On God, Not On The Difficulties.
