• ”As we grow spiritually, God begins to wean us from things that we think we can’t live without: things, comfort, the longing for life to ‘work.’ That’s a childish instinct, to say, ‘Life has to work the way I want it to work, and now’.” – Nancy Leigh DeMoss

Search Me by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 05/04/11

 

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: We spend a lot of time examining our lives.

“I always check my make-up after lunch.”

“In the morning when I step on the scale and I see that I’ve lost a pound or two—I get so excited!”

“Tuesday is bill night. My wife and I balance the checkbook, pay bills, and talk about stuff.”

Nancy: When is the last time you evaluated your life—spiritually? Are you allowing the Bible to be a mirror, showing you areas where you need to change? Are you measuring your spiritual progress? Are you more like Jesus today than you were a year ago?

Keeping close watch on our health and finances is important. But there’s nothing more important than saying with the psalmist, “Oh God, search my heart, try me, know me. See if there be any wicked way in me.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

  • “Lord, I give up all my own plans and purposes, all my own desires and hopes, and accept Thy will for my life. I give myself, my life, my all utterly to Thee to be Thine forever. Fill me and seal me with Thy Holy Spirit. Use me as Thou wilt, work out Thy whole will in my life at any cost, now and forever.” – Betty Scott Stam, 20th Century Martyr
