Waiting on God
About this book
Thirty-one short daily readings on a single theme: that in all our religion, personal and public, we need more of God. Murray wrote them after finding how deeply the thought met an answering hunger in others — that Christians must learn to cultivate a deeper sense of God’s presence and an entire dependence on Him. Each day takes one aspect of waiting — for supplies, for instruction, in times of darkness, patiently, quietly, continually — and turns it into prayer.
IF salvation indeed comes from God, and is entirely His work, just as our creation was, it follows, as a matter of course, that our first and highest duty is to wait on Him to do that work as it pleases
