I am not a missionary, but I have wanted my life to count for the unreached peoples of the world.

The Christian life becomes impossible. That is, it becomes supernatural.

No one will be able to rise to the magnificence of the missionary cause who does not feel the magnificence of Christ.

The essence of faith is being satisfied with all that God is for us in Jesus.

May we catch enough of a vision of Christ that we will not be satisfied unless we know him more fully.

O, God of wonder, enlarge my capacity to be amazed at what is amazing, and end my attraction to the insignificant.

Every Christian who struggles with depression struggles to keep their hope clear. There is nothing wrong with the object of their hope - Jesus Christ is not defective in any way whatsoever. But the view from the struggling Christian's heart of their objective hope could be obscured by disease and pain, the pressures of life, and by Satanic fiery darts shot against them... All discouragement and depression is related to the obscuring of our hope, and we need to get those clouds out of the way and fight like crazy to see clearly how precious Christ is.
