"I am indeed in an unholy place. It is given over to the devil in every form, but what matters, I belong to Christ for all time. "In prayer and humility I thank and greet thee, Beloved Maréchale." A beautiful girl in society writes the following: "All night long I have whispered your name over and over again to myself, saying, ’You have given me life, Maréchale, do you hear me? LIFE!!!!’ I was dying of remorse and fear. I shudder when I think of what would have become of me if I had not come to you. I used to say to myself, ’Oh, well, what’s the use, I have sinned beyond recall, so why not sin again, and again, and again? I am destined for Hell anyway, I may just as well get there as fast as I can’—that is what you have saved me from. "I wonder how many times I have prayed ’Let me forget, only let me forget,’ and the more I would pray, the more I would remember, and the more I would remember the more terrified I would get, until life seemed to slip away from me, and I would fall down, down, down, into a bottomless pit of horror.... And now I LIVE!!!! Oh, Maréchale (how I love that name, it sounds like music to me!) My mother gave life to my poor miserable body, but you gave life to my soul. My mother would not mind me loving you so if she knew that you gave me back to her." Again she writes: "I have lived alone, absolutely alone. God only knows how utterly alone I have been! But now I have Him, a _Some One who cares_! Is it not wonderful, Maréchale, I am no longer alone for I have my Christ? The warm thing that flames in my soul is the _knowledge that He loves me_! Now I know why all these years I have searched with empty hands for something. I have it now, I _LIVE!!!!_" A young gentleman whose life was transformed through attending the meetings held by the Maréchale’s family in Keswick writes from Beyrout, Syria: "Oh! what a responsibility it is for us to be the ambassadors of Christ, to represent Him to those who do not know Him, to be His Images! If it were not for us Christians, who so often stand in His way, Christ might have a chance. Some of the college men are meeting daily in my room to pray and I wish you could hear them praying in English, Arabic, Turkish, Armenian and even Abyssinian. You would not understand the words, but you could never mistake the spirit. "To-day I invited a man whom I know is in the hold of a terrible vice. He came, and during the half hour he looked as though he had made a mistake in coming, but, before he left, he had led in prayer for strength to overcome temptation. "Don’t you think America is a fine country? And yet, with all its great resources, opportunities and phenomenal progress, it is a very wicked country in many parts. Races, nations and individuals may prosper and succeed in plans for betterment and still be without the realisation of God,—they may be ’Good but Godless.’"
