Get Out of the Way

Get Out of the Way

July 29, 2014July 29, 2014 Posted in Catholic, spirituality

When we give up striving and trying to save ourselves with our own efforts,

when we finally get out of His way,

God has a chance to save us from ourselves.

Sometimes God waits till we are almost drowning,

exhausted by our own efforts

to save ourselves because

He knows that this is the only time

we will accept salvation on HIS terms.
