“I do - oh, indeed I do - desire to live up to my profession, to be His, for time and eternity. But I am learning to sec how very weak I am, and how easily Satan can conquer me even when I do strive against him. I do believe with my head that Jesus can, and will give me His grace, and I do not need to fear, yet somehow my heart seems to be hard and cold and not to take it in. Oh, if we were but there - where there is no more sin ! Oh do not forget to pray for me, and don't ever doubt the love of your unworthy friend.” IfsNeedsGivingBelieveHeartHardSeemsDesireJesusSinForgetDoubtGraceColdPrayingMy HeartWeakEternityGive MeStriveProfessionConquerSatanUnworthyDesire To LivePray For Me Author:Frances Ridley Havergal
