from Chapter 10

Humility and Death to Self

What a hopeless task if we had to do the work! Nature never can overcome nature, not even with the help of grace….

Sink every morning in deep, deep nothingness into the grave of Jesus; every day the life of Jesus will be manifest in thee…. The souls that enter into His humiliation will find in Him the power to see and count self dead, and, as those who have learned and received of Him, to walk with all lowliness and meekness, forbearing one another in love
