Christian Quotation of the Day

January 11, 1996

Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915

         Every virtue is a form of obedience to God. Every evil word or act is a form of rebellion against Him. This may not be clear at first; but, if we think patiently, we shall find that it is true. Why were you angry? You will probably find that it was because you were not willing to accept the world as God has made it, or because you were not willing to leave it to God to deal with the people that He has made.
         ... Stephen Neill, The Christian Character
