“In union with our beloved Lord we are to ‘preach the Gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things’ (Rom. 10:15) to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death…Have we in the past felt inclined to settle down, ourselves, into the peace and blessedness of the glad tidings, without declaring them to others? Have we spoken only with timidity of the grand privileges in Christ which we are ourselves enjoying, and which other weary ones need so much to have taught them? The time has come when our voice should be ‘lifted up with strength,’ when we should, without fear, ‘publish salvation,’ and say ‘unto Zion, thy God reigneth.’ Yes, beloved reader, our God reigneth, and if we crown Him Lord of all, Lord of our soul, Lord of our body, Lord of all the circumstance in our lives, we shall find that He is able to subdue all things unto Himself.” -Carrie Judd (Montgomery) in Dec. 1886 Triumphs of Faith 6:12
