Active Quote by Hannah Whitall Smith

“If the Lord sets you to guard a lonely post in perfect stillness from all active work, you ought to be just as content as to be in the midst of the active warfare. It is no virtue to love the Master's work better than the Master's will.” quote by Hannah Whitall Smith — Download Open image
