Sermon Outline:
Psalm 131 (NKJV)
A Song of Ascents. Of David. 1 Lord, my heart is not haughty, Nor my eyes lofty. Neither do I concern myself with great matters, Nor with things too profound for me. 2 Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul, Like a weaned child with his mother; Like a weaned child is my soul within me. 3 O Israel, hope in the Lord From this time forth and forever.
I The quietness initially at one’s conversion to Christ
II Quietness gradually as one grows in grace
III Quietness eventually as one matures in faith
