I love this quote by Jim Elliot found in the book Shadow of the Almighty.
“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.”
With all that has been going on with my father in-law and his continuing to weaken health this quote reminds me to hand over all things to God.
Right now he is in the hospital with a staph infection and is getting weaker by the day.
