Resting, trusting, praising, praying, thanking. There is so much beauty and energy in the spiritual life, isn't there?

A wise man said, when you realize that you cannot do what God has called you to do – – then you must turn to Him to walk with you through it.

What a great post! I too want to live in a spiritually passive voice – relying on Him to carry me.

Thanks Jane. I often forget that faith is a gift from God. I guess it's one of the gifts which I often forget to thank him for!

If I had to rely on my own faith, my own endeavour, even my own prayer to be healed, and to live as a Christian, rather than on the goodness of God--ah, what chance would I have?

I read something recently about how faith is a gift from God. Thank God for that because I don't think I could summon faith all the time otherwise.

Thanks so much for your encouraging comments.

Tim, wow, yes, you're right. I guess it's in our areas of weakness that we most feel the need of God, and so are most pliable in his hands. And if we didn't have obvious weaknesses, we might never feel the need og God!!
