"Between an airplane & every other form of locomotion & transportation there is one great contrast.
The horse & wagon, the automobile, the locomotive, the speedboat & the great battleship - all can come to a standstill without danger & they can all reverse their engines or their power & go back.
But there is no reverse about the engine of an airplane. It
cannot back up. It dare not stand still. If it loses its momentum &
forward-drives, then it crashes.
The only safety for the airplane is in its forward &
upward motion.
The only safe direction for the Christian to take is forward
& upward. If he stops, or if he begins to slip & go backward, that
moment he is in danger.”
- C. E. Macartney (ministry127.com)
"No, dear brothers and sisters, I am still not all I
should be, but I am focusing all my energies on that one thing: Forgetting the
past and looking forward to what lies ahead." - Paul (Phi 3:13)
"The future is as bright as the promises of
God." - William Carey.
