“We began our Christian life by depending not upon our own doing but upon what he had done. Until a man does this he is no Christian; for to say: “I can do nothing to save myself; but by his grace God has done everything for me in Christ,” is to take the first step in the life of faith. The Christian life from start to finish is based upon this principle of utter dependence upon the Lord Jesus. There is no limit to the grace God is willing to bestow upon us. He will give us everything, but we can receive none of it except as we rest in him. “Sitting” is an attitude of rest. Something has been finished, work stops, and we sit. It is paradoxical, but true, that we only advance in the Christian life as we learn first of all to sit down.”

Come and Receive 
Another one of those divinely wonderful paradoxes. I probably need to be reminded about this daily.
Hi Clark, me too. :). Thanks for commenting. Hope you come back to blogging soon. You have great things to say.
God resides in a peaceful mind, but the problem is the rareness of a peaceful mind.
Rishabh, so true. If we let God in, He puts our minds at rest in a chaotic world. Thanks for commenting.
