"He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose"
-- Jim Elliot, missionary martyr who lost his life at age 28 in the late 1950's trying to reach the Auca Indians of Ecuador

The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. -- J.R.R. Tolkein
Become All Flame
Abba Lot went to see Abba Joseph and said to him, 'Abba as far as I can I say my little office, I fast a little, I pray and meditate, I live in peace and as far as I can, I purify my thoughts. What else can I do?' then the old man stood up and stretched his hands towards heaven. His fingers became like ten lamps of fire and he said to him, 'If you will, you can become all flame.'

I like missions motivations mondays - will you keep doing this?
"The Lord is bearing hard on me the unreached... Why does not the church awake? ...because they don't 'feel called' to the mission field. We don't need a call; we need a kick in the pants." - Jim Elliot
