The great Michael Card wrote a book entitled, "The Walk." It was patterned after "Tuesdays with Morie" and focused on his relationship with his mentor, Dr. William Lane. Card describes how his friendship with Lane began and the impact that this pastor and professor of theology had on Card. I made numerous notes in my journal regarding the things said by Lane and I really appreciated this quote:
It makes an e-e-enormous amount of difference if you face conflict in your own strength - or if you face it with Jesus.
Whatever you face this day, do it with Jesus at your side. Treasure His Word. Reflect on what He has taught you. Pray at the first sign of stress or trouble.
The Lord is with you. Count on Him to be your help and guide. Don't fight. Don't flee. Trust Jesus.
