Missionaries Are Very Human Folks,

The Will Of God Is Always A Bigger Thing Than We Bargain For.

None Of It Gets To Be 'old Stuff', For It Is Christ In Print, The Living Word. We Wouldn't Think Of Rising In The Morning Without A Facewash, But We Often Neglect That Purgative Cleansing Of The Word Of The Lord. It Wakes Us Up To Our Responsibility

He Is No Fool Who Parts With That Which He Cannot Keep, When He Is Sure To Be Recompensed With That Which He Cannot Lose.

Live Every Day As If The Son Of Man Were At The Door, And Gear Your Thinking To The Fleeting Moment. Just How Can It Be Redeemed? Walk As If The Next Step Would Carry You Across The Threshold Of Heaven. Pray. That Saint Who Advances On His Knees Never Retreats.

I Pray For You, That All Your Misgivings Will Be Melted To Thanksgivings. Remember That The Shadow A Thing Casts Often Far Exceeds The Size Of The Thing Itself (especially If The Light Be Low On The Horizon) And Though Some Future Fear May Strut Brave Darkness As You Approach, The Thing Itself Will Be But A Speck When Seen From Beyond. Oh That He Would Restore Us Often With That 'aspect From Beyond,' To See A Thing As He Sees It, To Remember That He Dealeth With Us As With Sons.
