DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andrew Murray emphasizes the necessity of recognizing our utter
dependence on God's power to live a truly spiritual and Christlike life.
He warns against the self-confidence that leads us to believe we can
achieve this on our own, highlighting the importance of allowing the
Holy Spirit to work within us. Murray points out that many struggle to
embrace their weaknesses, failing to understand that true strength comes
from surrendering to God. He calls for a shift in perspective, urging
believers to see their dependence on God as a source of blessing rather
than a burden. Ultimately, he reminds us that all things are of God and
through God.

In the life of faith there is no lesson more needful and indispensable,
and yet, owing to our self-confidence, none more difficult, than that of
the utter weakness and helplessness of the regenerate man to live the
spiritual and truly Christlike life without the unceasing, every moment
working of God's power in us through the Holy Spirit.

The terrible deceit of the serpent in Paradise still lingers with us,
and instead of counting the most absolute dependence on God our highest
blessedness, as securing his doing all in us, we are unwilling to cease
from our strength and let him work all. We either do not care, or find
it hard to say, 'I will glory in my infirmities, that the power of
Christ may rest upon me.' It is because the Holy Spirit has never given
us the full vision of the full life. Of God, and through God all things.
