Tozer: exceeding expectation

Monday, December 17, 2018
    Commemoration of Eglantine Jebb, Social Reformer, Founder of ‘Save the Children’, 1928
Meditation:
    Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.
    —1 Timothy 4:7 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Let any man turn to God in earnest, let him begin to exercise himself unto godliness, let him seek to develop his powers of spiritual receptivity by trust and obedience and humility, and the results will exceed anything he may have hoped in his leaner and weaker days.
    ... A. W. Tozer (1897-1963), The Pursuit of God [1948], Christian Publications, 1982, p. 66 (see the book)
