Faith is not in itself a meritorious act; the merit is in the One to Whom it is directed.
Aiden Wilson TozerWhen we allow God to be exalted in our difficulties we are in the perfect place to smell the fragrance of His Presence.
Aiden Wilson TozerThis is the tragedy and woe of the hour--that we neglect the most important One who could possibly be in our midst--the Holy Spirit of God. Then, in order to make up for His absence, we have to do something to keep up our own spirits.
Aiden Wilson TozerTeach us, O God, that nothing is necessary to Thee. Were anything necessary to Thee that thing would be the measure of Thine imperfection: and how could we worship one who is imperfect? If nothing is necessary to Thee, then no one is necessary, and if no one, then not we. Thou dost seek us though Thou does not need us. We seek Thee because we need Thee, for in Thee we live and move and have our being. Amen.
