God loves importunate prayer so much that He will not give us much blessing without it.

I never prayed sincerely and earnestly for anything but it came at some time; no matter at how distant a day, somehow, in some shape, probably the least I would have devised, it came.

Thanks be to God, not--only for 'rivers of endless joys above, but for 'rills of comfort here below.'

No mind, no wisdom--tempora ry mind, temporary wisdom--eternal mind, eternal wisdom.

Permit us to labor on in obscurity, and at the end of twenty years you may hear from us again.

I will not leave Burma until the cross is planted here forever.

If God gave light and wisdom, the religion of Jesus was soon learned; but without God, a man might study all his life long, and make no proficiency.
