Light at Night

 

"Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say,The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me."

Hebrews 13:5-6

 

Even during the most lonely isolation I experienced in Korea during my 11 years there, nothing can compare to the isolation one can feel when you live among a people who speak your language but live in a different universe. Though it was difficult living for 11 years without English, my constant comfort came from two sources, the children of my classroom and God Himself. Except for the times outside the classroom in Korea, life there was grand in comparison to life back where people's English conversation contains concepts that are a threat to my conscience. Even though it can be difficult, I know that God is always with me and He will never fail me or forsaken me.

Then I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for naught, and in vain.--ISA. xlix. 4.

 

Because I spent the strength Thou gavest me
In struggle which Thou never didst ordain,
And have but dregs of life to offer Thee--
O Lord, I do repent.

SARAH WILLIAMS.

 

Mind, it is our best work that He wants, not the dregs of our exhaustion. I think He must prefer quality to quantity.

GEORGE MACDONALD.

If the people about you are carrying on their business or their benevolence at a pace which drains the life out of you, resolutely take a slower pace; be called a laggard, make less money, accomplish less work than they, but be what you were meant to be and can be. You have your natural limit of power as much as an engine,--ten-horse power, or twenty, or a hundred. You are fit to do certain kinds of work, and you need a certain kind and amount of fuel, and a certain kind of handling.

GEORGE S. MERRIAM.

In your occupations, try to possess your soul in peace. It is not a good plan to be in haste to perform any action that it may be the sooner over. On the contrary, you should accustom yourself to do whatever you have to do with tranquillity, in order that you may retain the possession of yourself and of settled peace.

MADAME GUYON.
