Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
giving-up relatives-and-friends safety
We are often hindered from giving up our treasures to the Lord out of fear for their safety; this is especially true when those treasures are loved relatives and friends. But we need have no such fears. Our Lord came not to destroy but to save. Everything is safe which we commit to Him, and nothing is really safe which is not so committed.
offering giving offering-to-god
We ought not to be looking for a place to hide, but a place to give ourselves as an offering to God.
time men giving
God has not bowed to our nervous haste nor embraced the methods of our machine age. The man who would know God must give time to Him....
giving-up men order
The faith of Christ offers no buttons to push for quick service. The new order must wait the Lord's own time, and that is too much for the man in a hurry. He just gives up and becomes interested in something else.
children giving infinite
An infinite God can give all of Himself to each of His children.
rainy-day giving remember
Time is a resource that is non-renewable and non-transferable. You cannot store it, slow it up, hold it up, divide it up or give it up. You can’t hoard it up or save it for a rainy day—when it’s lost it is unrecoverable. When you kill time, remember that it has no resurrection.
sacrifice men giving
No man gives anything acceptable to God until has has first given himself in love and sacrifice.
life wisdom giving
If God gives you a watch, are you honoring Him more by asking Him what time it is or by simply consulting the watch?
order giving trying
The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us.
philosophy ideas giving
Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward the idea of God, the reason being they are dedicated to the task of accounting for things and are impatient with anything that refuses to give an account of itself. The philosopher and the scientist will admit that there is much that they do not know; but that is quite another thing from admitting there is something which they can never know, which indeed they have no technique for discovering.
real men giving
I find that many men and women are troubled by the thought that they are too small and inconsequential in the scheme of things. But that is not our real trouble -- we are actually too big and too complex, for God made us in His image and we are too big to be satisfied with what the world offers us! ....Man is bored, because he is too big to be happy with that which sin is giving him. God has made him too great, his potential is too mighty.
heart giving missing
Most of us go through life praying a little, planning a little, jockeying for position, hoping but never being quite certain of anything, and always secretly afraid that we will miss the way. This is a tragic waste of truth and never gives rest to the heart.
yield giving
When we yield ourselves completely to God, He gives Himself completely to us.
men giving knowing-god
The man who would truly know God must give time to Him.
