  "My Utmost for His Highest".

• Spiritual lust--'I must have it at once'--causes me to demand an answer from God, instead of seeking God himself who gives the answer.

The purpose of prayer is that we get a hold of God, not of the answer.

Are you in the dark just now in your circumstances, or in your life with God? Then remain quiet...When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message for someone else when you get into the light.
