God is Enough

Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded.Jeremiah 7:23

The error that everything new is good and everything old is bad takes place in the realm of practice and worship and religious activity generally. This is a view…[that] can lead, of course, to great rebellion against the truth….

We will never be where we ought to be until we go back to those old paths and learn to find God. [Then] we will cease to be bored with God….[W]e will center our affections upon God and Christ…and become specialists and experts in the realm of the spiritual life.

It is amazing how little outside stimulus we need if we have that inward stimulus. It is amazing how much God will meet our needs. It will not be God and something else. It will be God everything.

And then, wisely, we will gear into our times…and in a moment we will become…alert to the needs of the world around us….[A]t the same time, our great anchor will be God above.

… God [will] be enough. TSS164-166

May God give us the courage to be obedient to His truths in this tragic, critical and dangerous hour in which we live. TSS166
