[In His Steps by Charles M. Sheldon]@TWC D-Link bookIn His Steps CHAPTER Thirteen 2/15
She had told him her reason for going. Virginia and Rollin comforted each other at the tea table, looking at each other with earnest, sad faces. "Rollin," said Virginia, and for the first time, almost, since his conversion she realized what a wonderful thing her brother's changed life meant to her, "do you blame me? Am I wrong ?" "No, dear, I cannot believe you are.
This is very painful for us. But if you think this poor creature owes her safety and salvation to your personal care, it was the only thing for you to do.
O Virginia, to think that we have all these years enjoyed our beautiful home and all these luxuries selfishly, forgetful of the multitudes like this woman! Surely Jesus in our places would do what you have done." And so Rollin comforted Virginia and counseled with her that evening.
And of all the wonderful changes that she henceforth was to know on account of her great pledge, nothing affected her so powerfully as the thought of Rollin's change of life.
Truly, this man in Christ was a new creature.
