“I know of no devotional book which I have re-read so many times. It is to an unusual degree filled with the words of eternal life. Through many years of bitter suffering, its author learned to see the Savior as the Lamb of God, and himself to walk the pathway ‘in the footprints of the Lamb.'”
– O. Hallesby; Vinderen, Norway; February 1915
“Twenty years ago I wrote the foward given above, for the first edition of this book. Today I have nothing to subtract from that recommendation, nor anything to add to it. I desire only that the book with its quiet streams of blessings may find its way onward and inward to the suffering souls of men.
