Miss Miriam Booth, daughter of the founder of the Salvation
Army, a beautiful, brilliant, cultured woman, began her Christian work with
great promise & had unusual success.
Very soon disease laid hold upon her & brought her down
to the point of death. A friend visiting her one day told her that it seemed a
pity that a woman so capable should be hindered by sickness from doing the
Lord's work.
She replied with gentle grace, "It is great to do the
Lord's work, but it is greater to do the Lord's will."

Mar 14:36 (GW): Jesus said, "Abba! Father! You can do
anything. Take this cup of suffering away from me. But let your will be done
rather than mine."
"There is always death at the end of your plan and life
at the end of God's plan." - Rod
Parsley.
1Th 5:18 (KJV): "In everything give thanks: for this is
the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
