Jacob limped [the] next morning as he went forward, but that limp was because God’s hand had touched him. We may have a terrible sorrow which gives us an emotional limp, but it is where God, in His Love and Mercy, has touched us, bringing us a blessing, with a consciousness of God’s Presence. God has left in our hearts the mark of His loving Touch.
-Nelson Bell, missionary to China, on the death of his baby son
