Gazing

Here's another quote from A. W. Tozer that I couldn't resist posting:

"Faith is not a once-done act, but a continuous gaze of the heart at the Triune God."
Gazing on the Lord in glory,
While our hearts in worship bow,
There we read the wondrous story
Of the cross — it's shame and woe.

  1. I'm sure you get tired of hearing me say that I love Tozer. I never get tired of reading his quotes.

  3. I love Tozer too Pilot-mom.
    He always told it as it was!
    He never watered it down and did not mince words!

    David, this song that you quoted, I love it so much!
    I am always glad when one of the brothers chooses it in the breaking of bread meeting!

    "Every mark of dark dishonour,
    Heaped upon Thy thorn crowned brow,
    All the depths of Thy heart's sorrow,
    Told in answering glory now.

    Gazing on it we adore Thee;
    Blessed, precious, holy Lord;
    Thou, the Lamb art ever worthy;
    This be earth's and heaven's accord."

    Great thought provking post Pigrim David...from Pilgrim pal Terry
