" Come day after day, and lay your
heart against His heart, and say to Him with strong desire: "Jesus, Lamb
of God, give, oh, give me Thyself, with Thy meekness and humility," and He
will fulfill the desire of them that fear Him. It is not enough to desire
it and to pray for it; claim and accept it as yours. This humility is given
you in Christ Jesus. Christ is our life. What does that mean? Oh, that God
might give you and me a vision of what that means. The air is our life, and
the air is everywhere, universal. We breathe without difficulty because God
surrounds us with the air; and is the air nearer to me than Christ is? The
sun gives light to every green leaf and every blade of grass, shining hour
by hour and moment by moment. And is the sun nearer to the blade of grass
than Christ is to man's soul? Verily, no; Christ is around us on every
side; Christ is pressing on us to enter, and there is nothing in heaven,
or earth, or hell, that can keep the light of Christ from shining into the
heart that is empty and open.
