Quote

We are not only to renounce evil, but to manifest the truth. We tell people the world is vain let our lives manifest that it is so. We tell them that our home is above and that all these things are transitory. Does our dwelling look like it? O to live consistent lives!

It is not lost time to wait upon God!
Hudson Taylor
Image
If we wait till we run no risk, the gospel will never be introduced into the interior.
Hudson Taylor
Image
If in the sight of God you cannot say you are sure that you have a special call to stay at home, why are you disobeying the Saviour's plain command to go?
Hudson Taylor
Image
When we work, we work. When we pray, God works.
Hudson Taylor
Image
Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.

You do not need a great faith, but faith in a great God.

Image
I am so weak that I can hardly write, I cannot read my Bible, I cannot even pray, I can only lie still in God's arms like a little child, and trust.
Hudson Taylor

The branch of the vine does not worry, and toil, and rush here to seek for sunshine, and there to find rain. No it rests in union and communion with the vine...Let us so abide in the Lord Jesus.
Hudson Taylor
Image
The real secret of an unsatisfied life lies too often in an unsurrendered will.
Hudson Taylor
Image
Fruit-bearing involves cross-bearing. There are not two Christs--an easygoing one for easygoing Christians, and a suffering, toiling one for exceptional believers. There is only one Christ. Are you willing to abide in Him, and thus to bear much fruit?
Hudson Taylor
Image
Truly Jesus is the great need of our souls.
Hudson Taylor
Image
Too often we attempt to work for God to the limit of our incompetency, rather than to the limit of God's omnipotency.
Hudson Taylor
Image
Let us never forget that what we are is more important than what we do.
Hudson Taylor
Image
The missionary spirit is the spirit of Jesus, the spirit of the incarnation and the cross.
Hudson Taylor
Image
As our Father makes many a flower to bloom unseen in the lonely desert, [let us] do all that we can do, as under God's eye, though no other eye ever take note of it.
Hudson Taylor
Image
If I had a thousand pounds, China should have it. If I had a thousand lives, China should have them. No! Not China, but Christ. Can we do too much for Him?
Hudson Taylor
Image
God's work is not man working for God it is God's own work, though often wrought through man's hands.
Hudson Taylor
Image
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest Heaven so real that we must have men there.

A little thing is a little thing, but faithfulness in little things is a great thing.
