Quotes by Ellen Vaughn  (?)

“Sometimes we look at outcomes in this life, seeking the reassurance of a happy ending, and it's just not there. What then? As Betty put it, His ways are "inscrutable." So we have to rest, not in the peace of a pretty story, but in the reality of faith in a Person we cannot see.”
Ellen Vaughn, Becoming Elisabeth Elliot

“Whatever befalls us . . . however it befalls us, we must receive as the Will of God. If it befalls us through man’s negligence, or ill will, or anger, still it is, in even the least circumstance, to us the will of God for if the least thing could happen to us without God’s permission, it would be something out of His control. His providence or His love would not be what they are. Almighty God Himself would not be the same God; not the God whom we believe, adore, and love.” —E. B. Pusey, noted in Elisabeth’s leather notebook of favorite quotes”
Ellen Vaughn, Being Elisabeth Elliot: The Authorized Biography: Elisabeth’s Later Years

“For Elisabeth, the central question was not, “How does this make me feel?” but simply, “Is this true?” If so, then the next question was, “What do I need to do about it to obey God?” Boom.”
Ellen Vaughn, Becoming Elisabeth Elliot
