Have You Felt Like Giving Up Lately?

David Wilkerson Have You Felt Like Giving Up Lately writes about “God has provided some better thing for us….” (Hebrews 11:40). But how shall we define that better thing? Better health benefits? Better goatskins? Better financial arrangements? Better times of ease and prosperity? Bigger barns?

No! I say God has provided for us something better in His only begotten Son. We should be spending more time getting into Jesus than trying to get something out of Him. We should not be praying that God make things happen for us, but to us.

Faith is a gift, not a diploma. Faith should not be a burden or a puzzle. The more childlike it is, the better it works. You need no seminar or textbook; you need no guide. The Holy Spirit will lead you close to Jesus – who is the Word – by whom cometh faith.”
