The world is a needy place; do not go there for sustenance. Instead, come to ME. Learn to depend on ME alone, and your weakness will become saturated with MY power. When you find your completeness in ME, you can help other people without using them to meet your own needs. Live in the Light of My presence, and your light will shine brightly into the lives of others.
- devotional from Sarah Young
But what happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely. Galatians 5:22
