To Take a Worm

"To take a worm of the earth

and make him a disciple of Jesus

is the greatest privilege God can bestow upon man.

To select an obstinate, ungodly, perverse rebel, and place him in the school of Christ

and at the feet of Jesus,

is the highest favor God can bestow upon any child of the dust."

~ J. C. Philpot 1802-1869
