The shiny paint laid on by curiosity's hand has worn off. What thing better can a man know than the love of Christ, which passes knowledge?
Jim ElliotLord, make my way prosperous not that I achieve high station, but that my life be an exhibit to the value of knowing God.
Jim ElliotRest in this - it is His business to lead, command, impel, send, call... It is your business to obey, follow, move, respond.
Jim ElliotOur young men are going into the professional fields because they don't 'feel called' to the mission field. We don't need a call; we need a kick in the pants. We must begin thinking in terms of 'going out,' and stop our weeping because 'they won't come in.' Who wants to step into an igloo? The tombs themselves are not colder than the churches. May God send us forth.
