• “In case any are puzzled by the different translations from which I draw strength and help and delight, it is like this: In studying any object with the microscope we use different lenses and turn the mirror in various ways; each change brings out some new wonder and beauty. So it is for those who are not Greek or Hebrew scholars, and who use the work of scholars to open the meaning of the exhaustible Word–the Bible is richer than any single version can fully show.” – Amy Carmichael

O God, my God, I am all weakness, but Thou art my Strength; I am ever anew bowed down by any trial, but Tliou canst and wiliest to lift me up. Let me not fail, O God my Strength; let me not be discouraged, O God, my Hope. Draw me each day, if it be but a little nenrer unto Thee; make me, each day, if it be but a little less unlike Thee; let me do or bear each day something, for love of Thee, whereby I may be titter for Thee. Let no day pass without my having done something pleasing unio Thee, Thus alone would I live, that I may live more unto Thee; thus would I die. longing to love Thee more—Amen.
