The following are excerpts from Elisabeth Elliot’s “Gateway to Joy”:
…Every experience, even the most unwelcome, if offered to Jesus, can become a gateway to joy.
God… setteth in pain the jewel of His joy. – FWH Meyers
O joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to thee; I trace the rainbow through the rain, and feel the promise is not in vain, that morn shall tearless be. – George Matheson
