Quotemeal: Jan. 18th, 1952

Friday, January 18, 1952

"If you knew that only a few would care that you came, would you still come? If you knew that those you loved would laugh in your face, would you still care? If you knew that the tongues you made would mock you, the mouths you made would spit at you, the hands you made would crucify you, would you still make them? Christ did."
— Max Lucado
