God Fills Our Nothingness

Be attentive to your own true nothingness. Of yourself you are nothing, you have nothing, you can do nothing. “Of ourselves we are not qualified to take credit for anything as coming from us; rather our qualification comes from God” (2Cor 3:5). So remain in quiet peace on the breast of the Heavenly Father and there you will find every good thing.
