Let Me Be a Woman - Elisabeth Elliot

****
Notes from Elisabeth to her daughter as she prepares for her upcoming marriage. Covers womanhood and marriage, also touching on singleness. I was encouraged by her words but was also struck by notes of "discipline to holiness" philosophy. My favorite quote from the book was actually Elisabeth quoting her husband Jim - "Let not our longing slay the appetite of our living".
