Self-Sufficency of God
I have just gotten through with the chapter in the book by A. W. Tozer "The Knowledge of the Holy" on the "Self - Sufficency of God". He stated and I quote, "Necessary is a foreign word with God." I would like to share with you the prayer he gave before the chapter started, "Teach us, O God, that nothing is necessary to Thee. Were anything necessary to Thee that thing would be the measure of Thine imperfection: and how can we worship one who is imperfect? If nothing is necessary to Thee, the no one is necessary, and if no one, then not we. Thou dost seek us though Thou doest not need us. We seek Thee because we need Thee, for in Thee we live and move and have our being." And to that I say, amen.
