More quotes by Amy Carmichael
Thank God, He does not measure grace out in teaspoons.
Amy Carmichael
If I put my own good name before the other's highest good, then I know nothing of Calvary's love
Amy Carmichael
I don't wonder apostolic miracles have died. Apostolic living certainly has.
Amy Carmichael
Bare heights of loneliness...a wilderness whose burning winds sweep over glowing sands, what are they to HIM? Even there He can refresh us, even there He can renew us.
Amy Carmichael
It is not the place where we are, or the work that we do or cannot do that matters, it is something else. It is the fire within that burns and shines, whatever be our circumstances.
Amy Carmichael
If monotony tries me, and I cannot stand drudgery if stupid people fret me and little ruffles set me on edge if I make much of the trifles of life, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
There are many rooms in the House of Pain.
Amy Carmichael
If I myself dominate myself, if my thoughts revolve round myself, if I am so occupied with myself I rarely have a heart at leisure from itself, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
From all that dims Thy Calvary, O Lamb of God, deliver me.

Our enemy is more aware than we are of the spiritual possibilities that depend upon obedience.
Amy Carmichael
What is the secret to great living? Entire separation to Christ and devotion to Him. Thus speaks every man and woman whose life has made more than a passing flicker in the spiritual realm. It is the life that has no time for trifling that counts.
Amy Carmichael
Nothing is worth doing at all, nothing is worth writing, which does not do something which will last.
Amy Carmichael
If I slip into the place that can be filled by Christ alone, making myself the first necessity to a soul instead of leading it to fasten upon Him, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
Give me the Love that leads the way The Faith that nothing can dismay The Hope no disappointments tire The Passion that'll burn like fire Let me not sink to be a clod Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God
Amy Carmichael
Does it not stir up our hearts, to go forth and help them, does it not make us long to leave our luxury, our exceeding abundant light, and go to them that sit in darkness?
Amy Carmichael
Our loving Lord is not just present, but nearer than the thought can imagine - so near that a whisper can reach Him.
Amy Carmichael
If I am inconsiderate about the comfort of others, or their feelings, or even of their little weaknesses if I am careless about their little hurts and miss opportunities to smooth their way if I make the sweet running of household wheels more difficult to accomplish, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
The only expenditure, and all its outworkings, for which God can be held to be responsible is that which He directs.
