Back to Bethel by F.B. Meyer

I don’t tell you to wait for feeling. I don’t ask you to feel resigned. You cannot begin by feelings. But I say, yield! choose! throw up your arms in surrender, and say,

“My God, have your way, and do your will, I will say yes.”

Towards the end of the Bible it says they shall say “Amen Hallelujah” (Revelation 19:4). You may depend upon it, that this is in heaven. There are things in our life to which we can’t say “Hallelujah” now, but we can say “Amen,” and keep on saying it. We get to the beginning of “Hallelujah” sometimes, but it is rare. Ah, we shall sing it out some day, “Amen! Hallelujah!” Meanwhile let us learn to live always and everywhere saying Yes to God. Then, instead of being bits of broken pottery we shall be vessels meet for the Master’s use, and prepared for every good work.
