If we could put down self in every way and entirely, we should find rest in all circumstances. If we walked as Christ did, we should see God and our Father in everything. Privations, temptations, difficulties —God and our Father is in all.
Subjection to His Word in everything, saying, "It is written," makes the most bitter thing sweet. Christ Himself has promised that we shall have rest. He reveals the Father to us and that is the blessing He has given us. All blessing comes from Christ teaching us every day to find rest by seeing God and our Father in everything.
