Quote<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cSince God has put His work into your weak hands, look not for long ease here: You must feel the full weight of your calling: a weak man with a strong God.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lady Culross to John Livingston of the Covenanters, quoted in Prodigals and Those Who Love Them, Ruth Bell Graham, 1991, Focus on the Family Publishing, p. 23<\/p>\n
Man Overboard<\/b><\/p>\n
here is a story of an Atlantic passenger laying in his bunk in a storm, deathly sick\u2014seasick. A cry of \u201cMan overboard\u201d was heard. The passenger thought, \u201cGod help the poor fellow\u2014there is nothing I can do.\u201d Then he thought at least he could put his lantern in the port-hole, which he did. The man was rescued, and recounting the story next day he said, \u201cI was going down in the darkness for the last time when someone put a light in a port-hole. It shone on my hand, and a sailor in a lifeboat grabbed it and pulled me in.\u201d Weakness is no excuse for our not putting forth all the little strength we have, and who can tell how God will use it?<\/p>\n
