“ Prayer will never do our work for us, what it will do is to strengthen us for work which must be done. ”
Jesus promised his disciples three things—that they would be completely fearless, absurdly happy, and in constant trouble.
~ William Barclay
To see what God is like, we must look at Jesus. He perfectly represents God to men in a form which they can see and know and understand.
So often we have a kind of vague wistful longing that the promises of Jesus should be true. The only way really to enter into them is to believe them with the clutching intensity of a drowning man.
In the time we have it is surely our duty to do all the good we can to all the people we can in all the ways we can.
