“We mustn’t be in a hurry to fix and choose our own
lot; we must wait to be guided. We are led on, like the little children, by a
way that we know not. It is a vain thought to flee from the work that God appoints
us, for the sake of finding a greater blessing to our own souls; as if we could
choose for ourselves where we shall find the fullness of the Divine Presence, instead
of seeking it where alone it is to be found, in loving obedience.”
(George Eliot, Daily
Strength for Daily Needs p. 177)
