God does not have to come and tell me what I must do for Him; He brings me into a relationship with Himself where I hear His call and understand what He wants me to do, and I do it out of sheer love to Him... When people say they have had a call to foreign service, or to any particular sphere of work, they mean that their relationship to God has enabled them to realize what they can do for God.

I want Thy plan, O God, for my life. May I be happy and contented whether in the homeland or on the foreign field; whether married or alone, in happiness or sorrow, health or sickness, prosperity or adversity -- I want Thy plan, O God, for my life. I want it; oh, I want it.

We all want to do the will of God, and we know that there is nothing nearer to His heart than the evangelization of the world.

There can be no prevailing in prayer without travailing in prayer.

He who would preach powerfully must pray effectively.

The Lord did not tell us to build beautiful churches, but to evangelize the world
