We Are Not Built For The Mountains And The Dawns And Aesthetic Affinities, Those Are For Moments Of Inspiration, That Is All. We Are Built For The Valley, For The Ordinary Stuff We Are In, And That Is Where We Have To Prove Our Mettle. Spiritual Selfishness Always Wants Repeated Moments On The Mount.

One Of The Greatest Hindrances In Coming To Jesus Is The Excuse Of Temperament. We Make Our Temperament And Our Natural Affinities Barriers To Coming To Jesus. The First Thing We Realize When We Come To Jesus Is That He Pays No Attention Whatever To Our Natural Affinities. We Have The Notion That We Can Consecrate Our Gifts To God. You Cannot Consecrate What Is Not Yours; There Is Only One Thing You Can Consecrate To God, And That Is Your Right To Yourself (romans 12:1).
