    Let us give up our work,our thoughts,our plans,ourselves,our lives,our loved ones,our influence,our all,right into His hand,and then,when we have given all over to Him,there will be nothing left for us to be troubled about,or to make trouble about.

    I am feeling more and more that it is, after all, just the prayers of God's people that call down blessing upon the work, whether they are directly engaged in it or not. Paul may plant and Apollos water, but it is God who gives the increase; and this increase can be brought down from heaven by believing prayer,whether offered in China or in England ... If this is so,then Christians at home can do as much for foreign missions as those actually on the field ... What I covet more than anything else is earnest,believing prayer.

    Do not have your concert first,and then tune your instrument afterwards.Begin the day with the Word of God and prayer,and get first of all into harmony with Him.
