More quotes by Jim Elliot
Birds are extremely valued as indicators of overall environmental health. If there's a problem in a wild bird population, it's indicative that something went wrong.
Jim Elliot
I many no longer depend on pleasant impulses to bring me before the Lord. I must rather response to principles I know to be right, whether I feel them to be enjoyable or not.
Jim Elliot
It makes me boil when I think of the power we profess and the utter impotency of our action. Believers who know one-tenth as much as we do are doing one-hundred times more for God, with His blessing and our criticism. Oh if I could write it, preach it, say it, paint it, anything at all, if only God's power would become known among us.
Jim Elliot
God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with him.
Jim Elliot
God is still on His throne, we're still on His 'footstool,' and there's only a knee's distance between!
Jim Elliot
Forgive me for being so ordinary while claiming to know so extraordinary a God.
Jim Elliot
Feast of Stephen, Deacon, First Martyr, the man who will not act until he knows all will never act at all.
Jim Elliot
Eternity shall be at once a great eye-opener and a great mouth-shutter.
Jim Elliot
Rest in this - it is His business to lead, command, impel, send, call... It is your business to obey, follow, move, respond.
Jim Elliot
I seek not a long life, but a full one, like you Lord Jesus.
Jim Elliot
For my generation I must have the oracles of God in fresh terms.
Jim Elliot
Those whimpering Stateside young people will wake up on the Day of Judgment condemned to worse fates than these demon-fearing Indians, because, having a Bible, they were bored with it - while these never heard of such a thing as writing.
Jim Elliot
Live every day as if the Son of Man were at the door, and gear your thinking to the fleeting moment. Just how can it be redeemed? Walk as if the next step would carry you across the threshold of Heaven. Pray. That saint who advances on his knees never retreats.
Jim Elliot
Father, make of me a crisis man. Bring those I contact to decision. Let me not be a milepost on a single road make me a fork, that men must turn one way or another on facing Christ in me.
Jim Elliot
Rest in this-it is His business to lead, command, impel, send, call, or whatever you want to call it. It is your business to obey, follow, move, respond, or what have you... The sound of 'gentle stillness' after all the thunder and wind have passed will be the ultimate Word from God.
Jim Elliot
Eagles are very tolerant and very adaptable, but they have to get established first. When birds are setting up their breeding territory, they are the most susceptible to being discouraged.
Jim Elliot
If we are the sheep of His pasture, remember that sheep are headed for the altar.
Jim Elliot
It's hard to steer a parked car.
Jim Elliot
Surely those who know the great passionate heart of Jehovah must deny their own loves to share in the expression of His.
Jim Elliot
As your life is in His hands, so are the days of your life. But don’t let the sands of time get into the eye of your vision to reach those who sit in darkness. They simply must hear.
