More quotes by Hudson Taylor
Learn to move man, through God, by prayer alone
Hudson Taylor
It is not lost time to wait upon God!
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
Let us never forget that what we are is more important than what we do.
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
Not infrequently our GOD brings His people into difficulties on purpose that they may come to know Him as they could not otherwise do.
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
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
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
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
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
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.
Hudson Taylor
There are three stages in the work of God: impossible, difficult,done.
Hudson Taylor
Christ is either Lord of all, or He is not Lord at all
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
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest Heaven so real that we must have men there.
Hudson Taylor
Carrying the cross does mean following in Jesus' footsteps. And in His footsteps are rejection, brokenheartedness, persecution and death. There are not two Christs - an easy going one for easy going Christians, and a suffering one for exceptional believers. There is only one Christ. Are we willing to follow His lead?
Hudson Taylor
Nothing can take the place of a real hunger for souls, or make up for the lack of it.
Hudson Taylor
When I cannot read, when I cannot think, when I cannot even pray, I can trust.
Hudson Taylor
Do not have your concert first, and then tune your instrument afterwards. Begin the day with the Word of God and prayer, and get first of all into harmony with Him.
Hudson Taylor
