Let nothing be said about anyone unless it passes through the three sieves: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?
Amy Carmichael
Image
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
Image
O Love of God, do this for me: Maintain a constant victory.

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.

If you would live in victory . . . you must refuse to be dominated by the seen and the felt.

Soldiers may be wounded in battle and sent to a hospital. A hospital isn't a shelf. It's a place of repair. And a soldier in the spiritual army is never off his battlefield. He is only removed to another part of the battlefield when a wound interrupts what he was meant to do, and sets him doing something else.

He said Love...as I have loved you. We cannot love too much.
Amy Carmichael
Image
If I say, Yes, I forgive, but I cannot forgive, as though the God, who twice a day washes all the sands on all the shores of all the world, could not wash such memories from my mind, then I know nothing of Calvary love.

Image
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.

Thank God, He doesn't measure out grace in teaspoons.

Image
From all that dims Thy Calvary, O Lamb of God, deliver me.
Amy Carmichael
Image
If you have never been hurt by a word from God, it is probably that you have never heard God speak.
Amy Carmichael
Image
We have all eternity to celebrate the victories but only a few hours before sunset to win them.
Amy Carmichael
Image
One must as willingly be nothing, as something.
Amy Carmichael
Image
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
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
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.
Amy Carmichael
Image
A cup brimful of sweetness cannot spill even one drop of bitter water, no matter how suddenly jarred.
Amy Carmichael
Image
If souls can suffer alongside, and I hardly know it, because the spirit of discernment is not in me, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
