When we look at ourselves, at the littleness of our love, the barrenness of our service and the small progress we make toward perfection, how soul-refreshing it is to turn away to Him, to plunge afresh in the "fountain opened for sin and for uncleanness"; to remember that we are "accepted in the beloved"..."who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption." Oh! the fulness of Christ, the fulness of Christ.
-Hudson Taylor, in a letter to his sister
We are best poised to receive from the Lord all He has to give, when we realize how great is our need of Him in all things.
