If God Allows the sun to shine upon you moment-by-moment without intermission, will not God Let His Life Shine Upon you every moment?
And why have you not Experienced It?
BECAUSE you have not Trusted God For It,
And You do not Surrender yourself Absolutely to God in That Trust.
Anything we can do without Prayer an without and Utter Dependence Upon God must come from the spring of natural life that is tainted with the flesh.
Prayer is both one of the Means and one of the Fruits of Union to Christ.
To Abiding More Abundantly!
Such Faith is Intended for us.
It is Within Reach of each one who will but Be Childlike, Yielding to the Father’s Will and Love, Trusting the Father’s Word and Power.
One Fact Strengthens our resolve and gives us Hope: it is Jesus who has Brought us This Message from the Father.
It is quite easy to return to the old place,
But quite demanding of us to Go Forward.
Yet now is the time To Be Faithful.
May we Walk in God’s Appointed Way.
To love the world requires no effort: to follow the world demands no strength.
But to Stand and Be Faithful to the Lord is a sure invitation to an encounter with a contrary wind, and soon we shall feel distress in rowing.
