My soul must come under the hand of the Spirit; just as a piece of clay on the potter’s wheel revolves, is touched by the fingers of the potter, and is molded into what he wishes it to be, I must lie passively in the hand of the Spirit of God. He must work in me to will and do of his own good pleasure. Then I can begin to work out my own salvation with fear and trembling, but never, never until then. I must have more than nature can give me, more than my mother and my father gave me, more than flesh and blood can produce. I must have the Spirit of God from Heaven. What is the best evidence I received him? That I rest upon Christ Jesus alone for salvation.
