Murray, Andrew, 1828-1917

"The Master's Indwelling"

That is every thing." What
is the use of having a mind; and what is the use of having money; and what
is the use of having children? That I can give them to God; for God must be
all in all in everything. I pray God that He may give us such a sight of
His kingdom, and His glory, that everything else may disappear. Then, if
you had ten thousand lives, you would say, "This is the beauty and the
worth of life, 'that God may be all in all' to me, and that I may prove to
men that God is more than everything, that life is only worth living as it
is given to God to fill." Do let us sacrifice everything for His kingdom
and glory. Begin to live day by day with the prayer, "My God, I am given up
to Thee. Be Thou my all in all." You say, "Am I able to realize that?" Yes,
in this way: Let the Holy Spirit dwell in you; let the Holy Spirit burn in
you as a fire, and burn in you with unutterable groanings, crying unto
God, Himself to reveal His presence and His will in you. In the eighth of
Romans, Paul spoke about the groanings of the whole creation.
