Strength for Today

I read this lengthy quote from A. W. Tozer and want to share it with you today. Sometimes we want to have our life all planned out and charted to our comfort. Well, it doesn't quite work that way! Read on.

"Most of us go through life praying a little, planning a little, jockeying for position, hoping but never being quite certain of anything, and always secretly afraid that we will miss the way. This is a tragic waste of truth and never gives rest to the heart.

"There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God. Our insistence upon seeing ahead is natural enough, but it is a real hindrance to our spiritual progress. God has charged Himself with full responsibility for our eternal happiness and stands ready to take over the management of our lives the moment we turn in faith to Him."

This is the better way to live. Faith. Trust. Turning things over to God. None live so pleasantly as those who live by faith. Join me?
