"Jesus said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'" -John 3:12
Lilias Trotter writes: "How the angels must watch the first day when that light reaches a new spot on this earth that God so loves--and the great wall of darkness is pushed back one tiny bit--and oh, the joy of being allowed to go with His message that first day. How can His people hold back from that joy while one corner remains unvisited by the Dayspring!"
As a missionary, Lilias's heart for the lost was her every-waking-moment purpose in life. To be so on fire for the Good News and wanting so passionately to share it is truly something to strive for.
I am grateful that there are those who will devote their lives to spreading God's love through living their lives wholeheartedly for Him.
