Expect Him

(an "unexpected" beautiful creation of God...this tree on the side of the road)
"We caluculate and estimate, and say that this and that will happen, and we forget to make room for God to come in as He chooses. Do not look for God to come in any particular way, but look for Him. That is the way to make room for Him. Expect Him to come, but do not expect Him in any certain way. At any minute He may break in. We are apt to overlook this element of surprise, yet God never works any other way. All of a sudden God meets the life. Keep your life so constant in its contact with God that His surprising power may break out on the right hand and n the left. Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for God to come in as He likes. "

Oswald Chambers "My Utmost for His Highest"
