And when in me myself should rise,
and long for something otherwise,
Then Lord, take sword and spear
And slay. - Amy Carmichael

Blessed are the single-hearted, for they shall enjoy much peace. If you refuse to be hurried and pressed, if you stay your soul on God, nothing can keep you from that clearness of spirit which is life and peace. In that stillness you will know what His will is. - Amy Carmichael
