“Hudson Taylor, the great missionary to China, said, ‘Many Christians estimate difficulty in the light of their own resources, and thus they attempt very little, and they always fail. All giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and His presence to be with them.’” (source)
“Here’s my definition of success: choosing to enter into the arena of action, determined to give yourself to that cause which will better mankind and last for eternity. Success is more than just power or not violating the rights of others; it is the privilege of contributing to the betterment of others.” (source)
“As branches we not only have our source from the vine, but we have God who oversees us, takes cares of us, and prepares us to be productive and fruitful.” (source)
“Not only can we make right decisions, we are responsible to make the right decisions.” (source)
“You can only give fruit to others when you are living a fruitful life inwardly.” (source)
