“A life once spent is
irrevocable. It will remain to be contemplated through eternity…The same may be
said of each day. When it is once past, it is gone forever. All the marks which
we put upon it, it will exhibit forever…Each day will not only be a witness of
our conduct, but will affect our everlasting destiny…How shall we then wish to
see each day marked with usefulness?! It is too late to mend the days that are
past. The future is in our power. Let us, then, each morning,
resolve to send the day into eternity in such a garb as we shall wish it to
wear forever.
And at night let us reflect that one more day is irrevocably gone, indelibly
marked."
Adoniram Judson, quoted in The Life of Adoniram Judson by Edward Judson, pp.14-15
