In Other Words Tuesday

“We are women, and my plea is,
‘Let me be a woman, holy through and through,
asking for nothing, but what God wants to give me,
receiving with both hands, and
with all my heart, whatever that is.’
~ Elisabeth Elliot    Amen, I love this quote. I truly do, want to be a holy woman, through, and through. I do not want to constantly be asking God for things, but, I want to willingly be ready, to accept what God wants to give me. Hands uplifted toward heaven, ready to receive with both hands, His gracious love offerings to me.  With all of my heart, I will be extremely thankful for whatever, He may choose to bless me with.
