It is true that a fellow cannot ignore women - but he can think of them as he ought - as sisters, not as sparring partners.
Jim ElliotNone of it gets to be 'old stuff', for it is Christ in print, the Living Word. We wouldn't think of rising in the morning without a facewash, but we often neglect that purgative cleansing of the Word of the Lord. It wakes us up to our responsibility

Jim ElliotThe will of God is sweet tonight, altogether โgood and acceptable and perfect.โ The considerate love of the Lord Jesus for us seems such a kind thing now. I know it has always been so, but somehow I didnโt see how wise it was when it didnโt seem kindโฆ Remind me of this when I cannot regard His love as considerate some time.
