The deeper reality in obedience is the kind of spirit it works into us. IT is a spirit that
crucifies greed
and covetousness. It is a spirit that crucifies greed
and covetousness. It is a spirit of compassion and outreach. It is a spirit of sensitivity and trust. Once this inner disposition has taken over our personality, material blessings cannot hurt us, for they will be used for right purposes. We will recognize material goods to be not for us alone, but for the good of all.
--Richard J. Foster
Is it not interesting that often people work so hard to "Take God out of the Box" But, in reality if one would respond to God as He has decided to reveal Himself he or she would see even the seemly mundane in God had such vast dynamics that it would be next to impossible to comprehend the effects of the “routine in God” on their lives! "Come and follow me!"
