Quotes from Helen Roseveare

God never uses a person greatly until He has wounded him deeply. The privilege He offers you is greater than the price you have to pay. The privilege is greater than the price.

We are called to reflect the Lord's beauty through our lives as much as through our words, and God will use this in His own perfect time.

If I truly believe in Him, I'll trust Him to desire for me that which is for my highest good, and to have planned for its fulfillment.

When would I learn the secret of happy, contented teamwork? Why did I always want to be the last link? If I would love the Lord with all my mind, I had to give Him all that I thought I knew or could do, and be willing for Him to place me anywhere within the team to do any job He chose for me. Only then would I exprience true peace of mind.

It would seem that God had merely asked me to give Him my mind, my training, the ability that He has given me; to serve Him unquestioningly; and to leave with Him the consequences....How wonderful God is, and how foolish we are to argue with Him and not to trust Him wholly in every situation as we seek to serve Him!

We are called to reflect the Lord's beauty through our lives as much as through our words, and God will use this in His own perfect time.

Can you thank Me for trusting you with this (difficult) experience, even if you never know the reason why?
