Jesus Calling by Sarah Young

I was introduced to a little devotional book last Autumn called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. She wrote it from the Lord's perspective using scripture. I am finding that each day I read it, I am drawn into the truth of who God is and who He wants me to be. I wanted to share what I read today:

"Living in dependence on Me is a glorious adventure. Most people scurry around busily, trying to accomplish things through their own strength and ability. Some succeed enormously; others fail miserably. But both groups miss what life is meant to be; living and working in collaboration with Me.

When you depend on Me continually, your whole perspective changes. You see miracles happening all around, while others see only natural occurrences and 'coincidences'. You begin each day with joyful expectation, watching to see what I will do. You accept weakness as a gift from Me, knowing that My Power plugs in most readily to consecrated weakness. You keep your plans tentative, knowing that My plans are far superior. You consciously live, move and have your being in Me, desiring that I live in you. I in you, and you in Me. This is the intimate adventure I offer you. "
