Wednesday Wisdom 11.01.17

"From the twelve apostles to the Auca missionaries of our generation, the history of the Christian church is the history of 'wasted' lives. The Christian may tabulate all the assets of his personality and take inventory of his preferences, but he casts all these at the feet of Christ. He is not seeking fulfillment but expendability. He counts not his life dear to himself, for he holds it in trust for Christ. His goal is beyond the grave; the crown of his high calling is in the hand of his risen Lord." - Edmund Clowney Called to the Ministry
