More quotes by Amy Carmichael

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.

There are many rooms in the House of Pain.
Amy Carmichael
If I belittle those whom I am called to serve, talk of their weak points in contrast perhaps with what I think of as my strong points if I adopt a superior attitude, forgetting Who made thee to differ? and what hast thou that thou hast not received? then I know nothing of Calvary love.

Amy Carmichael

Amy Carmichael
If the praise of others elates me and their blame depresses me if I cannot rest under misunderstandin g without defending myself if I love to be loved more than to love, to be served more than to serve, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
When an answer I did not expect comes to a prayer which I believed I truly meant, I shrink back from it if the burden my Lord asks me to bear be not the burden of my heart's choice, and I fret inwardly and do not welcome His will, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
If by doing some work which the undiscerning consider 'not spiritual work' I can best help others, and I inwardly rebel, thinking it is the spiritual for which I crave, when in truth it is the interesting and exciting, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
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
Missionary life is simply a chance to die.
Amy Carmichael
If the ultimate, the hardest, cannot be asked of me if my fellows hesitate to ask it and turn to someone else, 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.
Amy Carmichael
Joy is not gush. Joy is not mere jolliness. Joy is perfect acquiescence ~ acceptance, rest ~ in God’s will, whatever comes.
