Martin Luther Quotes

Hence, When We Ask Anything Of God And He Begins To Hear Us, He So Often Goes Counter To Our Petitions That We Imagine He Is More Angry With Us Now Than Before We Prayed, And That He Intends Not To Grant Us Our Requests At All. All This God Does, Because It Is His Way First To Destroy And Annihilate What Is In Us Before He Gives Us His Gifts; For So We Read In I Samuel 2:6: "The Lord Killeth, And Maketh Alive: He Bringeth Down To The Grave, And Bringeth Up." Through This Most Gracious Counsel He Makes Us Fit For His Gifts And Works. Only Then Are We Qualified For His Works And Counsels When Our Own Plans Have Been Demolished And Our Own Works Are Destroyed And We Have Become Purely Passive In Our Relation To Him.
