Work

No Substitute for Action – David Livingstone

Sympathy is no substitute for action.

– David Livingstone –

Don’t Lose Jesus – Vance Havner

It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God’s name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.

– Vance Havner –

Rest for the heavy-laden – Hudson Taylor

To every toiling, heavy-laden sinner, Jesus says, “Come to me and rest.” But there are many toiling, heavy-laden believers, too. For them this same invitation is meant. Note well the words of Jesus, if you are heavy-laden with your service… “Come to me and rest.” Never, never did Christ send a heavy laden one to work.

– Hudson Taylor –

Patience is Harder than Work – Peter Marshall

Teach us, O Lord, the disciplines of patience, for to wait is often harder than to work.

– Peter Marshall –

The Best Christians – John Geree

The best Christians should be the best husbands, best wives, best parents, best children, best magistrates, best subjects, that the doctrine of God might be adorned, not blasphemed.

– John Geree –
1646 AD

God’s Work Will Never Lack God’s Supply – Hudson Taylor

God’s work done in God’s way will never lack God’s supply.

– Hudson Taylor –

Sympathy vs Action – David Livingstone

Sympathy is no substitute for action.

The Connection Between Faith and Works – Charles Spurgeon

Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.

– Charles Spurgeon –

The Need of the Spirit – Charles Spurgeon

A church in the land without the Spirit is rather a curse than a blessing. If you have not the Spirit of God, Christian worker, remember that you stand in somebody else’s way; you are a fruitless tree standing where a fruitful tree might grow.
