• “Faith’s most severe tests come not when we see nothing, but when we see a stunning array of evidence that seems to prove our faith vain.” – Elisabeth Elliot

Yes, Lord by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 05/10/11

 

“I never knew teenagers could be so difficult!”

“My husband’s getting sicker every day.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Over the years I’ve watched women walk through some incredibly difficult, complex situations.

“There was another round of lay-offs, and we didn’t make it this time.”

“Those memories keep coming back.”

Nancy: I’ve discovered that in every circumstance, the real issue is this: Will I surrender to God’s hand and purpose in my life?

If you’re in the middle of one of those difficult, complex situations, let me remind you of Jesus’ example. He was asked to drink a bitter cup full of all the vilest sin of the world.

“‘Not my will, but Yours be done.’ Lord, if you could pray that, then I can pray it, too.”

Are you resisting God’s choices in any area of your life? Why not wave the white flag of surrender and say, “Yes, Lord.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

  • “I entreat you, give no place to despondency. This is a dangerous temptation–a refined, not a gross temptation of the adversary. Melancholy contracts and withers the heart, and renders it unfit to receive the impressions of grace. It magnifies and gives a false colouring to objects, and thus renders your burdens too heavy to bear. God’s designs regarding you, and His methods of bringing about these designs, are infinitely wise.” – Madame Guyon

Verse of the Day

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. — Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV)
