The real secret of an unsatisfied life lies too often in an unsurrendered will.

Let us never forget that what we are is more important than what we do.

But how to get faith strengthened? Not by striving after faith, but by resting on the Faithful One.

When I get to China, I will have no claim on any one for anything. My claim will be alone in God and I must learn before I leave England to move men through God by prayer alone.

Let but faithful labourers be found, who will prove faithful to God, and there is no reason to fear that God will not prove faithful to them.
