Amy Carmichael - Quote


"My silence speaketh to Thee, but I roam
With my poor silly thoughts, I know not where; 
That undistracted I may go to prayer 
O call them home."

- from Amy Carmichael in Toward Jerusalem

Writing Goal

One of my goals this year is to write more.  In order to help myself stay on track, I'm participating in the 250 Words a Day Challenge. My goal is to write 250 words each day.  This will include blog posts, lesson plans, and translation and writing projects. I also hope to periodically report on how my writing is coming along. If you'd like to join up in the challenge, just follow the link above.  Also, I'd love to hear about it, so leave me a comment.

Happy writing!

Yet Can I Pray

When hope is gone
-- yet can I pray.

When all has crumbled
-- yet can I pray.

When I cannot understand
-- yet can I pray.

When hurt is jagged, fierce
-- yet can I pray.

When I go through life's hardest troubles
-- yet can I pray.

My Father hears me still.

Sunset

"That Thy love sets not with sunset, 
Nor with starset, nor with moon,
But is ever one high noon, 
Thanks to Thee, our Father."
