I give up all my own plans and purposes – Betty Scott Stam

I give up all my own plans and purposes – Betty Scott Stam

Lord, I give up all my own plans and purposes. All my own desires and hopes and accept Your will for my life. I give myself, my life, my all, utterly to You to be Yours forever. Fill me and seal me with Your Holy Spirit. Use me as You will, send me where you will, work out Your whole will in my life at any cost, now and forever. To me to live is Christ. Amen.

I wouldn’t be anywhere else – Gladys Aylward

I wouldn’t be anywhere else – Gladys Aylward

Life is pitiful, death so familiar, suffering and pain so common, yet I would not be anywhere else. Do not wish me out of this or in any way seek to get me out, for I will not be got out while  this trial is on. These are my people, God has given them to me, and I will live or die with them for Him and His glory.

Defined by your relationship – John Oswalt

Defined by your relationship – John Oswalt

To be a Christian is defined by your relationship toward God as revealed in your conformity to God’s character … God is saying to you and to me, “Come, come walk with me. Come share My goals, share My pace, share My direction, share My walk.” … Are you a Christian? … God says, “Let me see your walk.”

Preserving fruit of my labor – George Whitefield

“My brother Wesley acted wisely,” Whitefield said. “The souls that were awakened under his ministry he joined in societies, and  thus preserved the fruit of his labor. This I neglected, and my people are a rope of sand.”

Does Christ control you? – Dawson Trotman

Does Christ control you? – Dawson Trotman

The question for each man to settle is not what he would do for the Lord if he had more money, time or education, but what he will do with the things he has. It’s not who you are or what you have that matters—but whether Christ controls you.

Self-Giving Love – Bill Ury

Self-Giving Love – Bill Ury

Holiness is nothing less than self-giving love. More than conceptual, this love is tangibly self-offering, self-dispensing, and self-emptying. It is the essence of biblical discipleship.
