"This is the only time in history when I get to fight for God. This is the only part of my eternal story when I am actually in the battle. Once I die, Iâ€™ll be in celebration mode in a glorified body in a whole different set of circumstances. But this is my limited window of opportunity, and Iâ€™m going to fight the good fight for all Iâ€™m worth."

-- Joni Eareckson Tada
