from Elizabeth Eliot...

I want to learn, too, that it is not an extraordinary spirituality that makes one refuse to do ordinary work, but a wish to prove that one is not ordinary--which is a dead giveaway of spiritual conceit. I want to respond in unhesitating obedience as Mary the mother of Jesus did: Anything You say, Lord.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
