Are you in a hurry, flurried, distressed? Look up! See the Man in the Glory! Let the face of Jesus shine upon you—the face of the Lord Jesus Christ. Is He worried, troubled, distressed? There is no wrinkle on His brow, no least shade of anxiety. Yet the affairs are His as much as yours.

Satan may build a hedge about us and fence us in and hinder our movements, but he cannot roof us in and prevent our looking up.
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
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
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.

If we are faithful to God in little things, we shall gain experience and strength that will be helpful to us in the more serious trials of life.
