Finding Peace in God's Hands

Here are some wise words from Elisabeth Elliot that I found very helpful....

“God’s promises to guide cover every imaginable situation. All we need to do is take the hand he stretches out. But it is here that the hardest question arises: How, exactly, do I take his hand? He has said over and over, ‘I will guide you,’ but there are so many promises with conditions attached, conditions that seem impossible to fulfill. The best kind of beginning, when we want to know the will of God, is to concentrate first on God himself. The briefest effort to do this will humble us.”
