Tozer for Tuesday

Being sound in the faith does not mean that God has tossed the Bible to you and says, “Here’s the rule book, good-bye, Follow the rules and you’ll make it through the gates at last.” Never, never. God says, “Here is the rule book; here are the precepts for righteousness. Do not get puffed up now, because you are a weak person and situations change like the chance of circumstance, so you will never quite know how to orientate yourself. You lean on Me hard, you trust Me constantly, you pray all the time, because otherwise you will not know how to make that precept apply in the hour when you need it.”—A.W. Tozer, Living as a Christian, 132
