But how to get faith strengthened? Not by striving after faith, but by resting on the Faithful One.
Hudson Taylor

Hudson Taylor
All God's giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reackoned on God being with them.
Hudson Taylor
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest heaven so real that we must have men there, Christ so real that our supreme motive and aim shall be to make the Man of Sorrows the Man of Joy by the conversion to him of many.
Hudson Taylor
God's work is not man working for God it is God's own work, though often wrought through man's hands.
Hudson Taylor
Unless there is an element of risk in our exploits for God, there is no need for faith.
Hudson Taylor
The Lord IS my shepherd. Not was, not may be, nor will be. . . is my shepherd on Sunday, is on Monday, and is through every day of the week is in January, is in December, and every month of the year, is at home, and is in China is in peace, and is in war in abundance, and in penury.
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.
