To begin this section of my blog I have chosen three quotes that are so very, very true and challenging ...
“I do know that waiting on
God requires the willingness to bear uncertainty, to carry within oneself the
unanswered question, lifting the heart to God about it whenever it intrudes
upon one’s thoughts. It is easy to talk oneself into a decision that has no
permanence- easier sometimes then to wait patiently.”
“…the things that we feel
most deeply we ought to learn to be silent about, at least until we have talked
them over thoroughly with God.”
“I never wanted to read
the last page of a book until I have read all the preceding pages. There is a
pleasure in doing certain things in the proper order.”
-Elisabeth Elliot
