More Hudson Taylor

We have need of patience, and our faithful God brings us into experiences which, improved by His blessing, may cultivate in us this grace.  Though we seem to be tried at times almost beyond endurance, we never find Him unable or unwilling to help and sustain us; and were our hearts entirely submissive to His will, desiring it and it only to be done, how much fewer and lighter would our afflictions seem.

 

I have been in much sorrow of late, but the principal cause I find to be want of willing submission to, and trustful repose in, God, my Strength.  Oh, to desire His will to be done with my whole heart.. to seek His glory with a single eye!  Oh, to realize more of the fullness of our precious Jesus.. to live more in the light of His countenance, to be satisfied with what He bestows..ever looking to Him, following in His footsteps and awaiting His glorious coming!

 

Continue to pray for me that God will supply all my need, Jesus be all my delight, His service be all my desire, rest with Him all my hope.
