The Rest of Meekness

I am shamelessly borrowing from my pastor’s blog (http://www.jeffcranston.com) here, because I really love this quote he recently posted. It’s from the late A.W. Tozer, pastor and author extraordinaire. Thanks, Jeff!

“Jesus calls us to His rest, and meekness is His method. The meek man cares not at all who is greater than he, for he has long ago decided that the esteem of the world is not worth the effort. The rest Christ offers is the rest of meekness, the blessed relief that comes when we accept ourselves for what we are and cease to pretend.”
