But Patience, to prevent<br /> That murmur, soon replies: “God doth not need<br /> Either man’s work or his own gifts: who best<br /> Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state<br /> Is kingly; thousands at his bidding speed<br /> And post o’er land and ocean without rest:<br /> They also serve who only stand and wait.”<br /><br />https://hitchhikeamerica.wordpress.com/2013/02/28/on-his-blindness/Tim Sheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07931913325290043598noreply@blogger.com
