The will of God is not something you add to your life. It’s a course you choose. You either line yourself up with the Son of God…or you capitulate to the principle which governs the rest of the world.

If we hold tightly to anything given to us unwilling to allow it to be used as the Giver means it to be used we stunt the growth of the soul.

Many deaths must go into reaching our maturity in Christ, many letting goes.

Blessings taken for granted are often forgotten.
