Exercising my right to waive my rights

I love the way Oswald Chambers writes. I could never have written that way. But I consider it a privilege to read what he said. On May 25, there is this:

Whenever right is made the guidance in the life, it will blunt the spiritual insight.

Thus he says, in thinking about Abraham's parting with Lot,

If you are living the life of faith, you will exercise your right to waive your rights, and let God choose for you.

I waived all my rights when I came here to Boston. I am asked not even to talk with new friends but only work, separated from family and church for several weeks, perhaps months if I don't refuse. So how can I give up such basic rights? Certainly not because I am "owned" by a contract. Rather, my rights are not paramount any more. What matters is that my God is glorified and pleased with me. He and He alone matters. For I believe assuredly that He will bless me, not if and only if I please Him, but because He promised to do so. As I believe His promise, I am bound to Him and desire nothing more than to glorify Him before all who know and work with me. For this reason I am willing (at least temporarily) to waive my rights and let others use me as they might use a tractor or fire poker.

"This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples." [Jn 15:8]

And for this, I allow the Father to prune off unfruitful branches from me. Father, I know you are pruning me by sending me here to Boston. Please help me not to resist any longer, but yield all my branches to you. Though you strip me bare, help me trust and not demand my rights. Help my wife and children to also trust you, and not doubt, but grow deeper with you.

Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me after Thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still.
