Everything we initiate will be interrupted by God. In the matter of serving God, we must stop ourselves in order to give God the absolute opportunity to speak. This requires our exercise. Witness Lee, Knowing Life and the Church, ch. 17

According to what the Bible tells us concerning our service to God, God's work needs man's cooperation, but it doesn't require man's initiation; God wants us to serve Him and love Him, but He doesn't need us to initiate things in God's work. Both … [Continue reading]
