" Now, that is exactly what is to take place
with a great many Christians. They know Christ, they trust Him, they love
Him, but He is not Master, He is a sort of helper. When there is trouble
they come to Him, when they sin they ask Him for pardon in His precious
blood, when they are in darkness they cry to Him; but often and often they
live according to their own will, and they seek help from themselves. But
how blessed is the man who comes and, like Potiphar, says, "I will give
up everything to Jesus!" There are many who have accepted Christ as
their Lord, but have never yet come to the final, absolute surrender of
everything. Christians, if you want perfect rest, abiding joy, strength to
work for God, oh, come and learn from that poor heathen Egyptian what you
ought to do. He saw that God was with Joseph and he said, "I will give up
my house to him." Oh, learn you to do that. There are some who have
never yet accepted Christ, some who are seeking after Him, thirsting and
hungering, but they do not know how to find Him.
