Keep your life so constant in its contact with God that His surprising power may break out on the right hand and on the left. Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for God to come in as He likes.

The plan, as I now saw it, seemed so infinitely more glorious, that I could only rejoice in it.

That was truly a glorious redemption.
