well it has been quite a long absence. i have been reading more often than writing, so maybe it is time to get back to the typewriter/keyboard/pen..etc,etc.
i have been reading A Chance to Die, a biography of missionary Amy Carmichael. read it.
here are a few gems that lay within the pages...
"The glory of our Lord Jesus Christ
His death for us upon the Cross
The benefit of pardon, utterly unmerited by us,
which we have because Jesus died."
"All that pleases is but for a moment
All that grieves is but for a moment
Nothing is important but that which is eternal."
"Which blow breaks the stone? Thee must never say, thee must never even let thyself think, 'I won that soul for Christ'. It is the first blow and the last,and every one in between!"
Crown Him the Son of Man
Who every grief hath known
That wrings the human breast,
and takes and bears them for His own
That all in Him may rest.
