It matters not to me what I do, or what I suffer, so long as I abide lovingly united to God’s will – that is my whole business.

Faith in Jesus is more than a match for worldly trials, temptations, unbelief, and overcomes them ALL. The same absorbing principle shines in the faithful service of God; with an enthusiastic love for Jesus, difficulties are surmounted, sacrifices become pleasures, sufferings are honors…if Christ be anything, He must be EVERYTHING. Oh rest not till love and faith in JESUS be the master passions of your soul!

Difficulties, dangers, disease, death, or divisions don’t deter any but Chocolate Soldiers from executing God’s Will. When someone says there is a lion in the way, the real Christian promptly replies, “That’s hardly enough inducement for me; I want a bear or two besides to make it worth my while to go.”

Funds are low again, hallelujah! That means God trusts us and is willing to leave His reputation in our hands.

Some wish to live within the sound of church or chapel bell. I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell.
