This week's quote comes from Gladys Aylward. One of the things I love about Gladys is that she embodied a willingness to go, wherever God might send her. She went from being a housemaid in England, to being rejected by a missionary agency, to finally making it to China where she served for many years. I love this quote for it's simplicity. I think in the end, the main thing God is looking for is people who are willing.
"I wasn't God's first choice for what I've done in China. I don't know who is was. It must have been a man, a well-educated man. I don't know what happened. Perhaps he died. Perhaps he wasn't willing, and God looked down and saw Gladys Aylward. And God said,
"Well, she's willing." - Gladys Aylward
