Amy Carmichael's wisdom again...
"If the praise of others elates me...
if the blame of others depresses me...
if I cannot rest when I am misunderstood, without defending myself...
if I love to be loved, more than to give love...
if I love to be served, more than serving...
then I know nothing of Calvary's love"
Talk about get me where it hurts! Ah to know Calvary's love, my heart's greatest desire!
WOW! This is amazing. Where is this from? Where can I find the full text? I'd love to share this!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was amazing too! I got this out of an Amy Carmichael devotional book called "I Come Quietly to Meet You", but the full text originally comes out of her book simply called "If". I haven't read "If", but I have heard it is a wonderful little book!
