“Never has it been so easy to live in half a dozen harmless worlds at once — art, music, social science, games, motoring, the following of some profession, and so on. And between them we run the risk of drifting about, the good hiding the best.
“It is easy to find out whether our lives are focused, and if so, where the focus lies. Where do our thoughts settle when consciousness comes back in the morning? Where do they swing back when the pressure is off during the day? Dare to have it out with God, and ask Him to show you whether or not all is focused on Christ and His Glory….
“Turn your soul’s vision to Jesus, and look and look at Him, and a strange dimness will come over all that is apart from Him…. For ‘He is worthy’ to have all there is to be had in the heart that He has died to win.”
Lilias Trotter (1853-1928), missionary to North Africa
