The saddest thing one meets is a nominal Christian.

Image
He said Love...as I have loved you. We cannot love too much.
Amy Carmichael
Image
Ours should be the love that asks not 'how little?' but, 'how much?' The love that delights to pour out everything upon the feet of our Beloved.
Amy Carmichael
Image
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.

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

Image
But God is the God of the waves and the billows, and they are still His when they come over us and again and again we have proved that the overwhelming thing does not overwhelm. Once more by His interposition deliverance came. We were cast down, but not destroyed.

We have all eternity to celebrate the victories but only a few hours before sunset to win them.
Amy Carmichael
Image
There is nothing dreary or doubtful about (the life). It is meant to be continually joyful...We are called to a settled happiness in the Lord whose joy is our strength.
Amy Carmichael
Image
God Hold us to that which drew us first, when the Cross was the attraction, and we wanted nothing else.
Amy Carmichael
Image
God, harden me against myself!
Amy Carmichael
Image
It is a solemn thing to find oneself drawn out in prayer which knows no relief till the soul it is burdened with is born. It is no less solemn afterwards, until Christ is formed in them.
Amy Carmichael
Image
We profess to be strangers and pilgrims, seeking after a country of our own, yet we settle down in the most un-stranger-like fashion, exactly as if we were quite at home and meant to stay as long as we could. I don't wonder apostolic miracles have died. Apostolic living certainly has.

If when I am able to discover something which has baffled others, I forget Him who revealeth the deep and secret things, and knoweth what is in the darkness and showeth it to us if I forget that it was He who granted that ray of light to His most unworthy servant, then I know nothing of Calvary love.

Image
If I cannot in honest happiness take the second place (or the twentieth) if I cannot take the first without making a fuss about my unworthiness, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
