Book Overview
"Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days;
Let them flow in ceaseless praise." Despite a lifetime battling chronic pain, English poet and hymnwriter Francis Ridley Havergal (1836-1879) reveled in a life consecrated and surrendered to her Master. In this book, she gives the reader a glimpse of the reflections, at the same time personal and theological, behind her well-known worship classic, "Take My Life and Let It Be." Although written more than one hundred years ago, her words are still relevant for today because Christ's call for complete devotion--of hands, feet, voice, mind, emotions, and livelihood--remains unchanged. Perfect as an inspirational study or for personal devotions, Kept for the Master's Use is an emboldening call to live a life fully dedicated to Christ.

All of us are familiar with the hymn, "Take my life and let it be". But few of us know the story or author behind it. In this book, the hymn writer herself writes for us her thoughts on this hymn. She brings us through each phrase of the song, and reveals some personal God-fearing thoughts concerning them. Thus we are able to hear from the writer herself, with the thoughts that inspired each line of this traditional favorite. This book is strongly recommended to all of you, as a short, sweet devotional; small and handy that can be carried around wherever you go! A highly encouraging read that is guaranteed to touch your hearts.
