Quote of the Week

Our quote this week comes from Nate Saint.  Nate was a missionary pilot who, along with Jim Elliot and three others, was martyred in the jungles of Ecuador.  The thing I love about this quote is that the focus is on the eternal significance of our actions.  I think having such a "bigger picture" way of looking at things drastically changes our everyday actions.

"People who do not know the Lord ask why in the world we waste our lives as missionaries.  They forget that they too are expending their lives... and when the bubble has burst, they will have nothing of eternal significance for the years they have wasted." - Nate Saint
