Quotes by Whitney James West (?)

“With this in mind, it seems only fitting to consider that when calls us to serve others, He's also inviting us to do so as an act of worship. This deeper connection between service and worship highlights the spiritual significance of our actions towards others.”
― Whitney James West, How You Wait Matters: A Resource Guide for Faith, Patience, and Prayer in Your Waiting Season
