Your heart of devotion and obedience is not in vain. Who knows but God how many people have come near to you and were forever changed simply by the fragrance of his love in you? Who knows but God if he will put you before kings and leaders to speak the truth, redirecting the future of nations? Who knows when that small crack in the dam of our enemy’s plans will give way and God’s glory will truly cover the earth as the sea? Do not become distracted or discouraged by the death around you. Death must always give way when the life of Christ enters the picture. Amy Layne Litzelman
About This Quote

The quote says that the supreme goal of life is to turn our hearts to God, but it also warns us not to become so immersed in our own personal obstacles that we are unable to see the lives of others. We must be careful not to become distracted by the death around us, but we must also be careful not to lose our focus on the life of Christ. The more time we spend with Christ, the more likely we are to see the beauty of His victory.
