Hudson Taylor's Answer to Anxiety
|
"The sweetest part, if on may speak of one part being sweeter than another , is the rest which full identification with Christ brings. I am no longer anxious about anything, as I realize this; for He, I know, is able to carry out His will, and His will is mine. It makes no matter where He places me , or how. That is rather for Him to consider than for me; for in the easiest position He must give me His grace, and in the most difficult His grace is sufficient. It little matters to my servant whether I send him to buy a few cash worth of things, or the most expensive articles. In either case he looks to me for the money and brings me his purchases. So, if God should place me in serious perplexity, must He not give me much guidance; in positions of great difficulty, much grace; in circumstances of great pressure and trial, much strength? No fear that resources will prove unequal to the emergency! And His resources are mine, for He is mine, and is with me and dwells in me" (From the book : Hudson Taylor's Spiritual Secret) Read through that again and really try to digest it. Oh how sweet it would be to come to the point in my own life where I am no longer anxious about anything because I realize that the Lord is able to carry out His will and HIS WILL IS MINE. That I could come to the place where I don't care where he places me or how, because His grace is sufficient. I need to think of it this way: I am His servant; I am on the King's errand today and He will supply for me whatever I need: grace, strength,guidance, any resource I need for whatever He brings into my day. He is mine and is with me and dwells in me. I pray I will remember this as I go throughout my day! ... and you too! Pam |
