Slow faith in the fast lane

In the book The Preacher's Calling to be a Servant, D. T. Niles offered these words: "Hurry means that we gather impressions but have no experiences, that we collect acquaintances but make no friends, that we attend meetings but experience no encounter. We must recover eternity if we are to find time, and eternity is what Jesus came to restore. For without it, there can be no charity."
