It is as sure as that I live. The almighty power
of God is working in me. I only need to get down, and be quiet; I need
to be more submissive, and surrendered to His will; I need to be more
trustful, and to allow God to do with me what He will." Give God His
way with you, and let God work, and He will work mightily. The deepest
quietness has often been proved to be the inspiration for the highest
action. It has been seen in the experience of many of God's saints, and it
is just the experience we need,--that in the quietness of surrender and
faith, God's working has been made manifest.
Fourthly: If God is to be all in all, sacrifice everything for His kingdom
and glory. "That God may be all in all." This is such a noble, glorious,
holy aim that Christ said, "For this I will give my life. For this I will
give my all, even to the death of the cross. For this I will give myself."
If it was worth that to Christ, is it worth less to you? If one had asked
Jesus of Nazareth, "What is it Thou hast a body for; what is to Thee the
highest use of the body?" He would have said, "The use and the glory of my
body is that I can give it a sacrifice to God.
