William Wilberforce on a Real Christian

Just spotted this over at Mrs. Nancy Wilson’s blog and wanted to share it.

William Wilberforce writing about his wife:

?I believe her to be a real Christian,? he wrote, ?affectionate, sensible, rational in habits, moderate in desires and pursuits, capable of bearing prosperity without intoxication, and adversity without repining.?

This is from David Vaughn?s biography of Wilberforce, published by Cumberland House, titled Statesman and Saint.
