TO MARY VAN DEUSEN: On God wanting us and not what we can do for God; and on our job to become more and more God's.

25 March 1954

I must be short for I have had a run of absolutely full days and there are endless things waiting to be done. You ask 'for what' God wants you. Isn't the primary answer that He wants you. We're not told that the lost sheep was sought out for anything except itself [Matthew 18:12-14; Luke 15:3-7]. Of course, He may have a special job for you: and the certain job is that of becoming more and more His. Yes, isn't [William] Law good?
