Old Paths in Portrait

“Remember that God is your Lord or Owner: and see that you make an absolute resignation of yourselves and of all that you have, to Him as His own; and use yourselves and all accordingly; trust Him with His own; and rest in His disposals.
 
It is easy, notionally, to know and say that God is our Owner, and we are not our own; but if the habitual, practical knowledge of it were as easy, or as common, the happy effects of it would be the sanctification and reformation of the world.”

-Richard Baxter English Puritan Minister  1615-1691
