Those words of Alexander Whyte of Free St. George's Church have remained living in the life of that man ever since. In them was the seed idea God was trying to plant in the mind of Moses. The best work is done by people who do not think they are fitted for it. Every great thing is done in spite of something.
Excuses are the unconscious humor of the unwilling.
God would probably never have made Moses facile with words, but would have seen to it that his stammering voice rang with a sincerity and power which is more than eloquence. The best teachers and persuaders are a-priori the most unexpected persons . People, in spite of handicaps and in spite of adversity, have accomplished far more than humanly speaking we thought they could. Take Beethoven, for example. He was totally deaf during the last 8 years of his life but it was during this tragic period that he wrote his Ninth Symphony, often acclaimed as his greatest musical work.
