GO FORWARD, CHILD OF THE LIVING GOD! HIS VICTORY ON THE CROSS OF CALVARY IS YOURS. YOU NEED NOT LOOK AT YOURSELF, BUT ON THE LORD YOUR GOD. LISTEN NOT TO THE EVIL VOICES OF SATAN, FOR SURELY THE LORD, THE ALMIGHTY, HAS DONE IT FOR YOU. YOURE HIGHLY TREASURED BY THE ENTIRE HEAVEN. MOVE IN SAVING FAITH & BE BLEST!!! BE FAOURED & EXPERIENCE THE SWEET FELLOWSHIP OF YOUR DEAR SAVIOUR AS YOU THIS INSPIRED PEN: My Guide and Pilot I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Psalm 32:8. Often the Christian life is beset with dangers, and duty seems hard to perform. The imagination pictures impending ruin before, and bondage and death behind. Yet the voice of God speaks clearly, Go forward. . . . Faith looks beyond the difficulties, and lays hold of the unseen, even Omnipotence, therefore it cannot be baffled. Faith is the clasping of the hand of Christ in every emergency. Every ship sailing the sea of life needs to have the divine Pilot on board; but when storms arise, when tempests threaten, many persons push their Pilot overboard, and commit their bark into the hand of finite man, or try to steer it themselves. Then disaster and wreckage generally follow, and the Pilot is blamed for running them into such dangerous waters. Do not commit yourselves into the keeping of men, but say, The Lord is my helper; I will seek His counsel; I will be a doer of His will. . . . It is as impossible for us to receive qualification from man, without the divine enlightenment, as it was for the gods of Egypt to deliver those who trusted in them. . . . Do not trust yourself to men. Act under the divine Guide. You have been chosen by Christ. You have been redeemed by the precious blood of the Lamb. Plead before God the efficacy of that blood. Say unto Him: I am Thine by creation; I am Thine by redemption. I respect human authority, and the advice of my brethren; but I cannot depend wholly upon these. I want Thee, O God, to teach me. I have covenanted with Thee to adopt the divine standard of character, and make Thee my counselor and guide--a party to every plan of my life; therefore teach me. Let the glory of the Lord be your first consideration. . . . Let every act of your life be sanctified by a holy endeavor to do the Lords will, that your influence may not lead others into forbidden paths. ---EGW, The Faith I Live By, p.100
