Don't Waste Time Asking God To Keep

Sanctification Means More Than Being Freed From Sin. It Means The Deliberate Commitment Of Myself To The God Of My Salvation, And Being Willing To Pay Whatever It May Cost.

Do We Not See God At Work In Our Circumstances? Dark Times Are Allowed And Come To Us Through The Sovreignty Of God. Are We Prepared To Let God Do What He Wants With Us? Are We Prepared To Be Separated From The Outward, Evident Blessings Of God? Until Jesus Christ Is Truly Our Lord, We Each Have Goals Of Our Own Which We Serve. Our Faith Is Real, But It Is Not Yet Permanent. And God Is Never In A Hurry. If We Are Willing To Wait, We Will See God Pointing Out That We Have Been Interested Only In His Blessings, Instead Of God Himself.

In The Spiritual Domain, Criticism Is Love Turned Sour... If Criticism Becomes A Habit, It Will Destroy The Moral Energy Of The Life And Paralyze The Spiritual Force... Whenever You Are In A Critical Temper, It Is Impossible To Enter Into Communion With God. Criticism Makes You Hard And Vindictive And Cruel, And Leaves You With The Flattering Unction That You Are A Superior Person. It Is Impossible To Develop The Characteristics Of A Saint And Maintain A Critical Attitude.

Satan Does Not Tempt Us Just To Make Us Do Wrong Things- He Tempts Us To Make Us Lose What God Has Put Into Us Through Regeneration, Namely, The Possibility Of Being Of Value To God.
