from Day 12

“Waiting on God: Keeping His Ways”

If we do not keep His ways, our waiting on Him can bring no blessing…. Let no one give way to the fear: I cannot keep His ways. It will rob you of every confidence. It is true you do not have the strength to keep all His ways. But surrender yourself willingly and trustingly to God. Give your whole being to Him without reserve and without doubt; He will prove Himself to you, and work in you that which is pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ.

Murray, Andrew. Waiting on God (CLC Publications: Fort Washington, PA, 1999), 60.

I have deliberately limited myself to only twelve quotes from this book, as with every book which I feature here, but there is so much more that I wanted to share with you. Of course, I’ve shared these twelve clips to whet your appetite to want to read this devotional book for yourself, so by all means get this book and make it a part of your quiet time. Andrew Murray is one of my favorite authors, and his writings never cease to encourage, uplift, and convict my heart.
