William Carey
We must not be contented however with praying, without exerting ourselves in the use of means for the obtaining of those things we pray for.
William Carey
I will venture to go... but remember that you must hold the ropes.
William Carey

William Carey

William Carey
All my friends are but one, but He is all sufficient.
William Carey

William Carey
We have only to keep the end in view, and have our hearts thoroughly engaged in the pursuit of it, and means will not be very difficult.
William Carey
...even on the low ground of common sense I seemed to be called to be a missionary. Is the kingdom a harvest field? Then I thought it reasonable that I should seek to work where the work was most abundant and the workers fewest.
William Carey
One of the first, and most important of those duties which are incumbent upon us, is fervent and united prayer.
William Carey
I'm a dreamer and continue to dream of what can and will be, Expecting great things from God, Attempting great things for God
William Carey
You have been saying much about Dr. Carey and his work. When I am gone, say nothing about Dr. Carey speak about Dr. Carey's Saviour.
