More quotes by Hudson Taylor

Hudson Taylor
Were it not for the consciousness of Christ in my life, hour by hour, I could not go on. But He is teaching me the glorious lessons of His sufficiency, and each day I am carried onward with no feeling of strain or fear of collapse.
Hudson Taylor
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.
Hudson Taylor
There are three great truths, 1st, That there is a God 2nd, That He has spoken to us in the Bible 3rd, That He means what He says.
Hudson Taylor
Unless there is an element of risk in our exploits for God, there is no need for faith.
Hudson Taylor
God isn't looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him
Hudson Taylor
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
