A Lamp Unto My Feet by Elisabeth Elliot

(The Bible’s Light for Your Daily Walk)

Day 18, page 33 ~ “Invisible Blessings: Being very much of the earth - earthy - we always want tangible, visible things: proofs, demonstrations, something to latch on to….Many of our prayers are directed toward the quick and easy solution. Long-suffering is sometimes the only means by which the greater glory of God will be served, and this is, for the moment, invisible. We must persist in faith. God has a splendid purpose. Believe in order to see it.”
