We shall have all eternity to celebrate the victories, but we have only the few hours before sunset in which to win them.

Amy Carmichael
If we were less of what seems like ease in our lives they would tell more for Christ and souls...We profess to be strangers and pilgrims, seeking after a country of our own, yet we settle down in the most un-stranger-like fashion, exactly as if we were quite at home and meant to stay as long as we could.
