" I am this day seventy years old, a monument of Divine mercy and goodness, though on a review of my life I find much, very much, for which I ought to be humbled in the dust; my direct and positive sins are innumerable, my negligence in the Lord's work has been great, I have not promoted his cause, nor sought his glory and honour as I ought, notwithstanding all this, I am spared till now, and am still retained in his Work, and I trust I am received into devine favour through him."
William Carey wrote these words to one of his sons. Just imagine, this man committed his life to Missions in India...
This quote really humbled me conerning my own self-righteousness and need of a Savior.
