Prayer Does Not Fit Us

What Is The Sign Of A Friend? Is It That He Tells You His Secret Sorrows? No, It Is That He Tells You His Secret Joys. Many People Will Confide Their Secret Sorrows To You, But The Final Mark Of Intimacy Is When They Share Their Secret Joys With You.

As We Go Forth Into The Coming Year, Let It Not Be In The Haste Of Impetuous, Forgetful Delight, Nor With The Quickness Of Impulsive Thoughtlessness . But Let Us Go Out With The Patient Power Of Knowing That The God Of Israel Will Go Before Us.

Are You Debating Whether You Should Take A Step Of Faith In Jesus, Or Whether You Should Wait Until You Can Clearly See How To Do What He Has Asked? Simply Obey Him With Unrestrained Joy. When He Tells You Something And You Begin To Debate, It Is Because You Have A Misunderstanding Of What Honors Him And What Doesn't. Are You Faithful To Jesus, Or Faithful To Your Ideas About Him?

The Real Meaning Of Eternal Life Is A Life That Can Face Anything Is Has To Face Without Wavering. If We Take This View, Life Becomes One Great Romance, A Glorious Opportunity For Seeing Marvelous Things All The Time. God Is Disciplining Us To Get Us Into This Central Place Of Power.

If You Have Become Bitter And Sour, It Is Because When God Gave You A Blessing You Hoarded It. Yet If You Had Poured It Out To Him, You Would Have Been The Sweetest Person On Earth. If You Are Always Keeping Blessings To Yourself And Never Learning To Pour Out Anything “to The Lord,” Other People Will Never Have Their Vision Of God Expanded Through You.
