Jesus loved the will of His Father. He embraced the limitations, the necessities, the conditions, the very chains of His humanity as He walked and worked here on earth, fulfilling moment by moment His divine commission and the stern demands of His incarnation. Never was there a word or even a look of complaint.
Elisabeth ElliotThe will of God is not something you add to your life. Itโs a course you choose. You either line yourself up with the Son of Godโฆor you capitulate to the principle which governs the rest of the world.
Elisabeth ElliotGod will never disappoint usโฆ If deep in our hearts we suspect that God does not love us and cannot manage our affairs as well as we can, we certainly will not submit to His discipline. โฆTo the unbeliever the fact of suffering only convinces him that God is not to be trusted, does not love us. To the believer, the opposite is true.
