We Must Build Our Faith Not On

We Can All See God In Exceptional Things, But It Requires The Culture Of Spiritual Discipline To See God In Every Detail.

We Tend To Use Prayer As A Last Resort, But God Wants It To Be Our First Line Of Defense. We Pray When There's Nothing Else We Can Do, But God Wants Us To Pray Before We Do Anything At All. Most Of Us Would Prefer, However, To Spend Our Time Doing Something That Will Get Immediate Results. We Don't Want To Wait For God To Resolve Matters In His Good Time Because His Idea Of 'good Time' Is Seldom In Sync With Ours.

When God Gets Us Alone Through Suffering, Heartbreak, Temptation, Disappointment, Sickness, Or By Thwarted Friendship - When He Gets Us Absolutely Alone, And We Are Totally Speechless, Unable To Ask Even One Question, Then He Begins To Teach Us.

A Heartless Christian Must Be A Terrible Grief To Our Lord.

There Comes The Baffling Call Of God In Our Lives Also. The Call Of God Can Never Be Stated Explicitly; It Is Implicit. The Call Of God Is Like The Call Of The Sea, No One Hears It But The One Who Has The Nature Of The Sea In Him. It Cannot Be Stated Definitely What The Call Of God Is To, Because His Call Is To Be In Comradeship With Himself, For His Own Purposes, And The Test Is To Believe That God Knows What He Is After.
