I have been reading a book by Elisabeth Elliot entitled, "A Chance to Die, the Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael". On page 50, I came across a paragraph written by Bishop Handley Moule which really stood out to me...

"To be like Christ. To displace self from the inner throne, and to enthrone Him; to make not the slightest compromise with the smallest sin. We aim at nothing less than to walk with God all day long, to abide every hour in Christ and He and His Word in us, to love God with all the heart and our neighbor as ourselves....It is possible to cast every care on Him daily, and to be at peace amidst pressure, to see the will of God in everything, to put away ALL bitterness and clamor and evil speaking, daily and hourly. It is possible by unreserved resort to divine power under divine conditions to become strongest through and through at our weakest point." -Bishop Handley Moule
