• “Experience has taught me that the Shepherd is far more willing to show His sheep the path than the sheep are to follow. He is endlessly merciful, patient, tender, and loving. If we, His stupid and wayward sheep, really want to be led, we will without fail be led. Of that I am sure.” – 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.

  • “Lead me, Lord, to the Rock that is higher than I. Let me hear your word, give me grace to obey, to build steadily, stone upon stone, day by day, to do what You say. Establish my heart where floods have no power to overwhelm, for Christ’s sake. Amen.” – Elisabeth Elliot
