The Daughter's Walk Quotes

“Oh, I take little phrases from Scripture in the morning and think about them all day, then at night I write down how God spoke to me through them.” “That’s nice,” I said as I stuck another stamp into my book. “Like this one,” she continued. “ ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.’ Now, I’ve always thought of that as a command, but it’s also a promise that one day I shall love God that way. Isn’t that lovely? That came out of my day yesterday. And the rest of it is a promise too, that I shall love my neighbor as myself, that I can count on that, and not only because it’s commanded.”
