Carmichael: Yes, Lord!

Tuesday, February 28, 2017
Meditation:
    He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece from a new garment and puts it on an old garment. If he does, he will tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old.”
    —Luke 5:36 (ESV)
Quotation:
    May the Lord lead further and further those who do in earnest want to live the Joshua [i.e., transformed] life. It means a daily dying to self and what self wants—a daily turning to our Master with a “Yes, Lord” to everything, even to what is most against the grain. May He quicken those who have not yet begun to live this life to see what they are missing, before it is too late.
    ... Amy Carmichael (1867-1951), Edges of His Ways [1955], London: SPCK, 1957, p. 102 (see the book)
    See also Luke 5:36; Ps. 51:10; 2 Cor. 6:16; Rom. 12:2; 13:14; 2 Cor. 5:17; Eph. 1:18-19; 4:22-24; Col. 1:27
Quiet time reflection:
    Yes, Lord.
