"In this day when shimmering personalities carry on the Lord's work after the methods of the entertainment world it is refreshing to associate for a moment even in the pages of a book with a sincere and humble man who keeps his own personality out of sight and places the emphasis upon the inworking of God. It is our belief that the evangelical movement will continue to drift farther and farther from the New Testament position unless its leadership passes from the modern religious star to the self-effacing saint who asks for no praise and seeks no place, happy only when the glory is attributed to God and himself forgotten...."(Tozer, Of God and Men, 16-18.)
"Happy only when the glory is attributed to God and himself forgotten..."That is the way I want to live my life!

That sounds like a wonderful way to live your life too Mo. I too wish I would live my life more like that, in worship to God, doing all for Him.
