Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.
Aiden Wilson TozerO God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, so that I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, โRise up my love, my fair one, and come away.โ Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.
Aiden Wilson TozerWere all human beings suddenly 2 become blind, still the sun would shine by day and the stars by night, for these owe nothing 2 the millions who benifit from their light. So were every man on earth 2 become atheist it could not affect God in any way. He is what He is in Himself without regard to any other. To believe in Him adds nothing to His perfections to doubt Him takes nothing away.
