For Jesus alone!
- Eberhard Arnold, April 1908
So may I live
with all I have
and nothing less.
I’ll give him all,
my Lord and King –
so will my heart
find happiness.

In our humanness we lack the right expectation of what is to come, in the sense that it is from God, from the other world, from the powers of the future, that the kingdom of justice must and will burst in upon us – not through the efforts of good people.
