Elizabeth Elliot
“‘I see that my deepest desire right now is not for Jesus and His Word, and it’s not for mission work. It’s for R. This is not right. It’s wrong. Why should I want anything more than to do God’s will and serve Him, whether married or single? That’s where I will be most fulfilled and at peace—in His will. I should want to know God most—in His power and in His suffering. My heart should be where His heart is. A marriage that isn’t built with God’s desires at the center would end up to be ruin for me anyway. . . .’”
Simple yet profound truth.
