So much true....

[ No soul can be really at rest until it has given up all dependence on everything else and has been forced to depend on the Lord alone. As long as our expectation is from other things, nothing but disappointment awaits us. Feelings may change, and will change with our changing circumstances; doctrines and dogmas may be upset; Christian work may come to naught; prayers may seem to lose their fervency; promises may seem to fail; everything that we have believed in or depended upon may seem to be swept away, and only God is left, just God, the bare God, if I may be allowed the expression; simply and only God ]
-Hannah Whitall Smith-


OHhhh, this is so much true....we base our lives on different things- job, relationships, family, carrer, ministry, -and all of them are great stuff! If only we don`t get too focussed on them...I have heard people loosing their homes, families... and still keep up loving LORD with all of their hearts.
Loosing work was a tremendous lesson of having wrong focus...but great opportunity to lean upon GOD!
