If it were not for uncertainties, we would have no need to walk by faith.

Elisabeth Elliot

Of one thing I am perfectly sure: God’s story never ends with ‘ashes.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

End God Myself Oneself Perfection Story
When ours are interrupted, his are not. His plans are proceeding exactly as scheduled, moving us always (including those minutes or hours or years which seem most useless or wasted or unendurable).
ELISABETH ELLIOT

Endurance Interrupt Ourselves Planning Schedule Wasted
Faith’s most severe tests come not when we see nothing, but when we see a stunning array of evidence that seems to prove our faith vain.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

Evidence Faith Ourselves See Stunning
The will of God is never exactly what you expect it to be. It may seem to be much worse, but in the end it’s going to be a lot better and a lot bigger.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

Better Big End Expectation God Willing
Where does your security lie? Is God your refuge, your hiding place, your stronghold, your shepherd, your counselor, your friend, your redeemer, your saviour, your guide? If He is, you don’t need to search any further for security.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

God Guide Hide Himself Lying Place Search Security Yourself
The secret is Christ in me, not me in a different set of circumstances.

ELISABETH ELLIOT

God Love Religious Yourself
Heaven is not here, it’s There. If we were given all we wanted here, our hearts would settle for this world rather than the next. God is forever luring us up and away from this one, wooing us to Himself and His still invisible Kingdom, where we will certainly find what we so keenly long for
ELISABETH ELLIOT

Forever God Heart Heaven Himself Settle World
If you believe in a God who controls the big things, you have to believe in a God who controls the little things. It is we, of course, to whom things look ‘little’ or ‘big’.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

One does not surrender a life in an instant. That which is lifelong can only be surrendered in a lifetime.

A man will be as much of a gentleman as a woman requires.
ELISABETH ELLIOT

If God, like a father, denies us what we want now it is in order to give us some far better thing later on. The will of God, we can rest assured, is invariably a better thing.
ELISABETH ELLIOT
