All my friends are but one, but He is all sufficient.

Expect great things from God, receive great things from God. Expect little from God, receive little from God.

If the biographer gives me credit for being a plodder, he will describe me justly. Anything beyond this will be too much. I can plod. I can persevere in any definite pursuit. To this I owe everything.

To know the will of God, we need an open Bible and an open map.

Add to this occasional journeys, ministers’ meetings, etc., and you will rather wonder that I have any time, than that I have so little. I am not my own, nor would I choose for myself. Let God employ me where he thinks fit, and give me patience and discretion to fill up my station to his honour and glory.

I will venture to go... but remember that you must hold the ropes.

I feel it my duty to plod on while daylight last.
