Thought for March 4

[Thompson, Darryl]

     Selfishness prevents us from beholding God. The self-seeking spirit
judges of God as altogether such a one as itself. Until we have
renounced this, we cannot understand Him who is love. Only the unselfish
heart, the humble and trustful spirit, shall see God as "merciful and
gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth." Exodus
34:6. Desire of Ages, p. 302
