If you hope for happiness in the world, hope for it from God, and not from the world.

Oh, how precious is time, and how it pains me to see it slide away, while I do so little to any good purpose.

Let me forget the world and be swallowed up in the desire to glorify God.

As to my success here I cannot say much as yet: the Indians seem generally kind, and well-disposed towards me, and are mostly very attentive to my instructions, and seem willing to be taught further.

I hardly ever so longed to live to God and to be altigether devoted to Him. i want to wear out my life in His service, and for His Glory!!

The Lord help me to press after God forever

I have a secret thought from some things I have observed, that God may perhaps design you for some singular service in the world.
