Our Object

"To be like Christ.
To displace self from the inner throne,
and to enthrone Him;
to make not the slightest compromise with the smallest sin.
We aim at nothing less than to walk with God all day long,
to abide every hour in Christ
and He and His words in us,
to love God with all the heart
and our neighbors as ourselves…
It is possible to cast away every care on Him daily,
and to be at peace amidst pressure,
to see the will of God in everything,
to put away all bitterness and clamor and evil speaking,
daily and hourly.
It is possible by unreserved resort to divine power
under divine conditions
to become strongest through and through
at our weakest point."

-Bishop Moule

Three little, precious people are the "divine conditions" under which God daily calls me to "unreserved resort to divine power." Oh, Father, give me more grace to turn away from myself and toward you!

Thank you for the quote, Jacqua!

Oh Cara, this speaks to my soul at such a point of need. Honestly,life is weary right now and I am by His grace working at casting my cares.
I find such comfort in constantly coming back to my weakness being my greatest link to Him.

Much love to you and Jacqua.
