Elizabeth Goudge Quotes
I had not known before that love is obedience. You want to love, and you can't, and all the time love is not some marvelous thing that you feel but some hard thing that you do. And this in a way is easier because with God's help you can command your will when you can't command your feelings. With us, feelings seem to be important, but He doesn't appear to agree with us.

All thine immortal powers bring into play; Think, act, strive, reason, and look up and pray.
