I am very defective in all duties... In prayer I wander and am formal... I soon tire devotion languishes and I do not walk with God.

More quotes by 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 feel it my duty to plod on while daylight last.
William Carey
Those who would be employed in propagating the Gospel should be familiar with the doctrines he is to combat and the doctrines he is to teach, and acquire a complete knowledge both of the Sacred Scriptures and of these philosophical and mythological dogmas which form the souls of the Buddhist and Hindu Systems.
William Carey
Is not the commission of our Lord still binding upon us? Can we not do more than now we are doing?
William Carey
One of the first, and most important of those duties which are incumbent upon us, is fervent and united prayer.
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
The most glorious works of grace that have ever took place, have been in answer to prayer.
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
There are grave difficulties on every hand, and more are looming ahead. Therefore, we must go forward.
William Carey
Without justification salvation is not of grace, but of works.
William Carey
Expect great things from God, attempt great things for God.
William Carey
All my friends are but one, but He is all sufficient.
William Carey
The future is as bright as the promise of God.
William Carey
I was once young and now I am old, but not once have I been witness to God's failure to supply my need when first I had given for the furtherance of His work. He has never failed in His promise, so I cannot fail in my service to Him.
William Carey
Expect great things from God, receive great things from God. Expect little from God, receive little from God.
William Carey
If the biographer gives me credit for being a plodder, he will describe me justly. Anything beyond this will be too much. I can plod. I can persevere in any definite pursuit. To this I owe everything.
William Carey
It is the duty of those who are entrusted with the Gospel to endeavor to make it known among all nations.
William Carey
I will venture to go... but remember that you must hold the ropes.
William Carey
A Christian minister is a person who in a peculiar sense is not his own he is the servant of God, and therefore ought to be wholly devoted to Him.
William Carey
If you want the Kingdom speeded, go out and speed it yourselves. Only obedience rationalizes prayer. Only Missions can redeem your intercessions from insincerity.
William Carey
