As We Grow In Holiness,

God Is At Work In All The Circumstances Of Your Life To Bring Out The Good For You, Even If You Had Never Heard Of Romans 8:28. His Work Is Not Dependent Upon Your Faith. But The Comfort And Joy That Statement Is Intended To Give You Is Dependent Upon Your Believing It, Upon Your Trusting In Him Who Is At Work, Even Though You Cannot See The Outcome Of That Work.

Holiness Is Nothing Less Than Conformity To The Character Of God

Uncontrolled Temper Is Soon Dissipated On Others. Resentment, Bitterness, And Self-pity Build Up Inside Our Hearts And Eat Away At Our Spiritual Lives Like A Slowly Spreading Cancer.

Lord, I Am Willing To Receive What You Give. To Lack What You Withhold. To Relinquish What You Take, To Suffer What You Inflict, To Be What You Require.

Giving Thanks To God For Both His Temporal And Spiritual Blessings In Our Lives Is Not Just A Nice Thing To Do - It Is The Moral Will Of God. Failure To Give Him The Thanks Due Him Is Sin.
