The Desire of Ages March 16th Whatever our position, we are dependent on God, who holds all destinies in His hands. He has appointed us our work and has endowed us with faculties and means for that work. So long as we surrender the will to God and trust in His strength and wisdom, we will be guided in safe paths, to fulfill our appointed part in His great plan. I delight to do your will, O my God: your law is within my heart. #Psalm 40:9. But the one who depends on his own wisdom and power is separating himself from God. Instead of working in unison with Christ, he is fulfilling the purpose of the enemy of God and man. DA 209.
