'To relinquish; to admit that some dreams are presumptuous; to acknowledge that some needs outlast me; to recognise my inability to supply what is lacking; to admit that I am limited; to say no to competition with brothers and sisters, and to give to others what I strongly desired for myself; and in it all to still take up the pen or give voice to preach Jesus- these indicate a surrender to noble limits
....God is the remembered one. But this does not mean we are forgotten- not by him. Not by a long shot. In fact, being remembered by him means we no longer fear being forgotten by the world. Living humanly within his remembrance is enough'
