'Each little life

The day is long enough for God's plan.

The sun never sets too soon for His purpose. Each little life is long enough for the little part of the world's work allotted to it.

This is true even of him who dies in the maturity of his powers, with his hands yet full of unfinished tasks.

No one can ever offer as an excuse for an unfulfilled life-work, that the time given to him was too short.

It is always long enough, if only every moment of it is filled with simple faithfulness.
