It is not
wise to wrestle with the revelations with such insistence as to demand
immediate answers or blessings to your liking. You cannot force
spiritual things. Such words as compel, coerce, constrain, pressure,
demand, do not describe our privileges with the Spirit. You can no more
force the Spirit to respond than you can force a bean to sprout, or an
egg to hatch before it’s time. You can create a climate to foster
growth, nourish, and protect; but you cannot force or compel: you must
await the growth.
Do not
be impatient to gain great spiritual knowledge. Let it grow, help it
grow, but do not force it or you will open the way to be misled.
