Expect and Attempt

"Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God"*. When I was young, such words of a missionary were Read. Words I never forgot and locked them deep in my Head. Of course there were many adverse and opposing Words. But I waved them off, and they quickly flew away like Birds. I had very humble and small beginnings, always looking to Excel. When one dreams and fears The Lord, he need never fear to Fail. Whether they took me farther than I otherwise would have Gone; Or if they opened a part of me that I otherwise would never have Known; I shall never know, but I am grateful to have latched on to the Challenge. Having done so, I think the Lord is pleased. And I am the more Advantaged.
