I really like this quote by St Basil the Great that I came across sometime back:
"When you have become God's in the measure he desires, then he himself will bestow you upon others; unless, to your greater glory, he choose to keep you all to himself. " - St Basil the Great
I like that quote too. That is the first time I have seen it. I definitely have not become God\'s in the full measure that He desires, and I certainly hope He doesn\'t keep me all to Himself. Far be it from me to seek anything but the heavenly reward and not a personal one. I shudder at the quote from the Bible, \"To whom much is given, much shall be required.\" God has blessed me greatly in many ways but I feel I have just scratched the surface in giving back to Him, even though I have given my talents to the Church for many years. I know I can do more. There are so many of our own people that need to be taught, let alone the heterodox that don\'t know what the True Faith is because of sheer ignorance.
