Down, Lower Down




 ( winter  blossoms )
Here is the path to the higher life: down, lower down! Just as water always seeks and fills the lowest place, so the moment God finds men abased and empty, His glory and power flow in to exalt and to bless.”

― Andrew Murray, Humility

A  signpost  from  the Word  of God

15 Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.

1John 2 (New  Testament)

  4. "True humility does not so much consist in thinking badly of ourselves, as in not thinking of ourselves at all." from The True Grace of God wherein we stand.

  6. Dear Amrita,
    How hard it is, not to love the world. We are supposed to be in the world, but not of the world.
    I admit falling over and over again.
    This is why your post was such a useful reminder. Thanks.
