QUIET OUR SPIRITS. RELAX OUR NERVES.

I read these words this morning and feel certain they would bless you.

We poor human creatures are constantly being frustrated by limitations imposed upon us from without and within....Life is a short and fevered rehearsal for a concert we cannot stay to give.  Just when we appear to have attained some proficiency we are forced to lay our instruments down.  There is simply not enough time to think, to become, to perform what the constitution of our natures indicate we are capable of.

....How completely satisfying to turn from our limitations to a God who has none.  Eternal years lie in His heart.  For Him time does not pass, it remains; and those who are in Christ share with Him all the riches of limitless time and endless years.  God never hurries....Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.  For those out of Christ, time is a devouring beast.

Abounding sin is the terror of the world, but abounding grace is the hope of mankind.

A. W. Tozer
