I hope your Christmas was wonderful and worshipful! Let&#8217;s begin this on-ramp to 2022 by worshiping together this morning. \ud83d\udcd6\ud83c\udf3b\u2615 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are reading in Week 34 of our &#8220;Through the New Testament in a Year&#8221; scheduled, which takes us to Ephesians 3. This chapter concludes with a beautiful prayer I&#8217;d love to commit to memory so I can pray it for others. Sweet Blessings lists our scripture writing assignment as Galatians 4:4-7, speaking of our sonship&#8230;a relationship made possible through the truth of John 1:12&#8211;to those who received him, this new relationship as a &#8220;child of God&#8221; is made possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We add verse 14 to our scripture memory portion in Psalm 103, practicing verses 1-14 this week&#8230;what a comfort that each member of the trinity was present at creation, and they know &#8220;we are dust&#8221;. God&#8217;s expectations of you are entirely realistic, because He knows He is all-sufficient for our every need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Streams in the Desert, F.B. Meyer writes about &#8220;Iron Saints&#8221;: &#8220;The iron crown of suffering precedes the golden crown of glory. And iron is entering into your soul to make it strong and brave.&#8221; Tozer challenges us regarding &#8220;Loving God Only&#8221;&#8211;God is not a means to an end&#8230;knowing Him should be the ultimate goal in our &#8220;Pursuit of God&#8221; (a fine book by this same author)&#8211;Jer. 9:23,24. For today&#8217;s entry in the ledger of &#8220;Faith&#8217;s Checkbook by Spurgeon, we consider &#8220;His Kindness and Covenant&#8221;: &#8220;Kindness and covenant-dwell on these words as sure and lasting things which eternity itself shall not take from thee.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We finish by looking at John 1:1 to guide our prayer time, and by reading &#8220;Confession and Petition&#8221; in The Valley of Vision&#8211;if you have come to embrace God&#8217;s answer of &#8220;no&#8221; in your life, knowing it is safest and most blessed to accept His will over your own, this prayer will deeply resonate with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen here: <a href=\"https:\/\/anchor.fm\/thequietrestpodcast\/episodes\/Quiet-Time-Corner-December-27--2021-Ep--236-e1c6vcb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/anchor.fm\/thequietrestpodcast\/episodes\/Quiet-Time-Corner-December-27&#8211;2021-Ep&#8211;236-e1c6vcb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good morning!
