The branch of the vine does not worry, and toil, and rush here to seek for sunshine, and there to find rain. No; it rests in union and communion with the vine; and at the right time, and in the right way, is the right fruit found on it. Let us so abide in the Lord Jesus.

J. Hudson Taylor, founder of China Inland Mission, in the closing months of his life said to a friend, "I am so weak. I can't read my Bible. I can't even pray. I can only lie still in God's arms like a little child and trust."

J. Hudson Taylor

I have seen many men work without praying, though I have never seen any good come out of it; but I have never seen a man pray without working.

J. Hudson Taylor

Christ is either Lord of all, or He is not Lord at all.

J. Hudson Taylor

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

J. Hudson Taylor

If I had 1,000 lives

I'd give them all for China

Since the days of Pentecost,has the whole church ever put aside every other work and waited upon Him for ten days,that the Spirit's power might be manifested? We give too much attention to method and machinery and resources, and too little to the source of power.
