# Elizabeth Prentiss on Dying Grace

“Dying grace is not usually given until it is needed. Death to the disciple of Jesus is only stepping from one room to another and far better room of our Father’s house. And how little all the sorrows of the way will seem to us when we get to our home above!” — [Elizabeth Prentiss](/authors/elizabeth-payson-prentiss), in [George L. Prentiss](/authors/george-lewis-prentiss), *The Life and Letters of Elizabeth Prentiss* (1882), p. 514
