“Lead me, Lord, to the Rock that is higher than I. Let me hear your word, give me grace to obey, to build steadily, stone upon stone, day by day, to do what You say. Establish my heart where floods have no power to overwhelm, for Christ’s sake. Amen.” – Elisabeth Elliot
O, that I could write with the language of angels..."Yes! O, yes! Hear this, for it is so true."
So true, so convicting. But He does not require me to speak as an angel, He calls me to give my all for His sake, right here, right now, where I am. Even though where I am, maybe especially because where I am, is grievously difficult. How light all our afflictions will be seen to be though, one day, and how heartbreaking now to think that in that day, I will weep for all I could have done but didn't. Forbid it, dearest Lord.
Let us pray for one another, for strength, endurance, yes, these things, but even more for the ceaseless flow of faith and hope and love. Blessed be the man who exhorts the children of God as this man has done.
Thank you, Michelle, for your faithful ministry. I thank God for your work, and pray His blessing upon you. He is faithful.
“I henceforth take Jesus Christ to be mine. I promise to receive Him as a husband to me. And I give myself to Him, unworthy though I am, to be His spouse. I ask of Him, in this marriage of spirit with spirit, that I may be of the same mind with Him — meek, pure, nothing in myself, and united in God’s will. And, pledged as I am to be His, I accept as part of my marriage portion, the temptations and sorrows, the crosses and the contempt which fell to Him. — Jeanne M.B. de la Mothe Guyon, Sealed with her ring.”
