We have not to produce out of our higher nature a lowliness and a patience and a purity of our own, but simply to let the pure, patient, lowly life of Jesus have its way in us by yieldingness to it and by faith in its indwelling might. “All that God wants from man is opportunity.” The whole of our relationship to His power, whether for sanctification or for service, is summed up in those words.
