Elisabeth Elliot - Do The Next Thing

Do the next thing... Elisabeth Elliot held these words close to her heart... but "the next things" can be hard to do when you are a young wife grieving over the violent death of a beloved, dynamic husband. It can be a struggle to do anything next when tragedy hits. Yet in God's strength, Elisabeth did quite a few "next things". After her husband and four other missionaries were martyred, Elisabeth found the courage to care for her child, write, and spread the gospel to the very people who had speared her husband.
Elisabeth Elliot's life as a missionary in the jungle of Ecuador, and later as bold spokeswoman for biblical femininity, speaks to our hearts about what the Lord will do when we surrender our all to Him, in a day when people like to live for themselves.
