Our Work Will Continue
(This photo of tobacco was taken at the beginning of September when Marty and I went to the cabin. We had seen a beautiful yellow field from a distance and decided to drive to it to see what was growing there. We had never seen tobacco this color OR this tall - Marty stood beside it and it was over his head!)
"The results need not end with our earthly days. Should Jesus tarry our works will follow us . . . God may use, by reason of the wonderful solidarity of His Church, the things He has wrought in us, for the blessing of souls unknown to us: as these twigs and leaves of bygone years, whose individuality is forgotten, pass on vitality still to the new-born wood-sorrel. God only knows the endless possibilities that lie folded in each one of us!"
-- quote by Lilias Trotter from "A Passion for the Impossible - The Life of Lilias Trotter" by Miriam Huffman Rockness
