not the burden of my heart's choice


-->
If, when an answer I did not expect comes to a prayer
which I believed I truly meant, I shrink back from it;
if the burden my Lord asks me to bear
be not the burden of my heart’s choice,
and I fret inwardly and do not welcome His will,
then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael, "If"
