“People, by nature, desire to be independent.... You’re not truly independent until you realize that ‘independent’ is spelled and pronounced with the emphasis on the IN, INdependence.... as in, inward. By INdependence, we mean dependence on the indwelling spirit of God, the kingdom of God which Jesus identified as being within you.… If your dependence is on this realm, there is nothing in the world that can hurt you, defeat you, or prevent you from enjoying the good that your Creator, God, has in mind, as prepared for you. --Charles Roth, in Mind, the Master Power, “The Spiritual Power of Independence” (edited by L. Hammock). |
