More quotes by Amy Carmichael

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
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.

If I put my own good name before the other's highest good, then I know nothing of Calvary's love
Amy Carmichael
If I am afraid to speak the truth lest I lose affection, or lest the one concerned should say, You do not understand, or because I fear to lose my reputation for kindness if I put my own good name before the other's highest good, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
Those who think too much of themselves don't think enough.
Amy Carmichael
Part of a soldier's duty is to fill gaps...one must be willing to be nothing, as something.
Amy Carmichael
I wish thy way. And when in me myself should rise, and long for something otherwise, Then Lord, take sword and spear And slay.
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 I can enjoy a joke at the expense of another if I can in any way slight another in conversation, or even in thought, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
If our children were to grow up truthful they much be taught by those who had a regard for truth and not just a casual regard, a delicate regard. On this point we were adamant.
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
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.
Amy Carmichael
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.
