Partners Blogcast: "Stay Awake When Duty Calls"

Steve and Oddny Gumaer started Partners Relief & Development in response to the needs of refugees and displaced people from Burma. This blog is meant to be a more personal stream of conversation than newsletters allow for. The opinions expressed here may not be those of Partners Relief & Development.

Stay Awake When Duty Calls

By Steve Gumaer - Thomas à Kempis, in "The Imitation of Christ," wrote these words: “Those who love stay awake when duty calls, wake up from sleep when someone needs help; those who love keep burning, no matter what, like a lighted torch. Those who love take on anything, complete goals, bring plans to fruition … But those who do not love, faint and lie down on the job.”
