We all need a bit of encouragement

 I am sharing this quote by Amy Carmichael, one of my spiritual heroes because it encouraged me this morning.


“Nothing will matter to me again except the things that are eternal.”
 Amy Carmichael

Honestly that is a hard creed to live by but with God’s help He is able to change our hearts and align it with eternal priorities. Some times all He ask of us is to simply be faithful with whatever He has entrusted to us. Our daily bread. Whether it may be studies, family, job...it should all be done with the aim of changing this world for the glory of God. Temporal pursuit causes us to waste our lives on things that are meaningless in light of eternity.  But we are not called to do this in our own strength, because it is impossible. The power to fulfill all that God has called us to is found in Christ Jesus our King, the Father, who is the source of all things.
