O.C. writes: "Are you prepared to surrender totally and let go? The true test of abandonment or surrender is in refusing to say, "Well, what about this?"
"Abandonment means to refuse yourself the luxury of asking any questions. If you totally abandon yourself to God, He immediately says to you, "I will give your life to you as a prize...(Jer. 45:5)"
"If you are not there it is either because of disobedience in your life or your refusal to be simple enough."

Oswald most certainly is like a VERY strong cup of triple espresso sometimes! My in-laws gave me "My Utmost" Christmas 1995, and with very little deviation, I have read it every morning . . . and now I am using his devotional daily Bible to read through the Psalms and the NT comments. I read clips of his regularly on my Sunday show on WORD FM, "Bible Burgh".
