“The Christian life is not
glamorous to the flesh.When a little seed is put into the ground it is not
comfortable.It lies in the dark isolation of rough soil for months,suffers in
the frozen ground of winter and the heat of summer,and is even covered with
stinking nature and fertilizer.Only after it has silently endured all these
trials is the seed ready to spring to life and produce a harvest that will feed
many.When a seed is buried in the ground it has no choice but to wait patiently
for God’s time for it to spring to life”.
“We are not called to live by
human reason.All that matters is obedience to God’s word and His leading in our
lives.If God says go,we will go.If He says stay,we will stay.When we are in His
will,we are in the safest place in the world”.
“We are absolutely nothing.We have
nothing to be proud about.We have no abilities and nothing to offer God.The
fact that He chooses to use us is only due to His Grace.It has nothing to do
with us.If God should choose to raise up others for His Purpose and never use
us again we would have nothing to complain about”.
“If you give God the right to
yourself, He will make a holy experiment out of you. God’s experiments always
succeed.”
