All our difficulties are only platforms for the manifestations of His grace, power and love.

One difficulty follows another very fast - but God reigns, not chance.

Truly Jesus is the great need of our souls.

Too often we attempt to work for God to the limit of our incompetency, rather than to the limit of God's omnipotency.

Carrying the cross does mean following in Jesus' footsteps. And in His footsteps are rejection, brokenheartedness, persecution and death. There are not two Christs - an easy going one for easy going Christians, and a suffering one for exceptional believers. There is only one Christ. Are we willing to follow His lead?

If I had 1,000 lives, I'd give them all for China.

Devotion to God is still a voluntary thing; hence the differences of attainment among Christians.
