It is nothing on these points.
Consecration is placing yourself in an attitude or position where God
can have His way with you. And this He asks you to do for your good. As
long as any of your will stands in His way, He can not pour out the Holy
Ghost upon you, and neither could you enjoy the fullness of salvation.
Nothing is quite so good as the will of God, nothing so adorable. In
that will is bound up for you the noblest life, the fullest and freest
expression of your individuality, the best adaptation and use of your
talents, the greatest joy, the sweetest pleasures, the quietest rest,
the purest delights in this world and pleasures forever at God's right
hand.
Oh, embrace that will of God! Seek it, hide in it, revel in it, be
enthusiastic about it, run to it. Oh, never evade it, fight shy of it,
neglect it, nor refuse it! Dropping into God's will means dropping into
our own niche in life and being happy in fulfilling our destiny as God
has marked out by His infinite wisdom.

sometimes I feel that my faith is strong, but at other times I feel that
my faith is giving way.
