The Simplicity of Enjoying God

 The following is from Knight of Faith, Volume II, a collection of Norman Grubb's personal correspondence. This is what he replied to one writer who corresponded with him:

". . . your interesting question on enjoying God!  I find my answer not on me enjoying Him, but as I know Him as my joy, then my joy (really His in me) is the natural reaction.

"I learned a great lesson when I saw that I myself can never have love, joy or anything.  They are not abstract things that become part of me.

"But as I saw that God Himself is the love, joy, peace, everything then by recognising Him in me as such, there is the consciousness of the love, joy, peace--really He in and by me.

"So that enjoying God is really God as the joy in me expressed thru me!"
