A. W. Tozer on activity in the Church

I share a quote by A. W. Tozer in the Pursuit of God. In 1949 Tozer thought the church was missing something, it is still lost.

Joy is a life vest

For the Christian, joy is not rooted in some vague, self-generated sense of well being. Joy is rooted in the character of God and an understanding that Jesus has made a provision for us.

I do a lot of whining to God. One one hand, God is the perfect target of whining because he can take it, and he can bring correct to me and the situation that I’m whining about. But in thinking about this, I realize that there is no room for self-pity in Christian maturity.
