READY TO BE OFFERED - "I am ready to be offered." Tell God you are ready to be offered; then let the consequences be what they may, no matter what God chooses. God puts you through the crisis in private. Externally the life may be the same; the difference is in will. Go through the crisis in will, then when it comes externally there will be no thought of the cost. "Bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar." The altar means fire - burning and purification and insulation for one purpose only, the destruction of every affinity that God has not started and of every attachment that is not an attachment in God. You do not destroy it, God does; you bind the sacrifice to the horns of the altar; and see that you do not give way to self-pity when the fire begins. After this way of fire, there is nothing that oppresses or depresses. When the crisis arises, you realize that things cannot touch you as they used to do. Tell God you are ready to be offered, and God will prove Himself to be all you ever dreamed He would be.

Tell God you are ready to be offered; then let the consequences be what they may, there is no strand of complaint now, no matter what God chooses.
God puts you through the crisis in private, no one person can help another.
Externally the life may be the same; the difference is in will.
Go through the crisis in will, then when it comes externally there will be no thought of the cost.
If you do not transact in will with God along this line, you will end in awakening sympathy for yourself.

What is your way of fire?
Tell God you are ready to be offered, and God will prove Himself to be all you ever dreamed He would be.
