LIVING
FOR GOD

Live in the world as if God and your soul only were in it; that your heart may be captive to no earthly thing.

John of the Cross

The Son of God has redeemed us solely to this end: that we should, by a right life and devotion, live to the glory of God. This is the one and only rule and standard of living.

William Law

I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God’s hands, that I still possess.

Martin Luther

If I had a thousand lives, China should have them. No! Not China, but Christ. Can we do too much for him?

Hudson Taylor

Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go,

My daily labor to pursue;

Thee, only thee, resolved to know,

In all I think, or speak, or do.

The task thy wisdom hath assigned

O let me cheerfully fulfil:

In all thy works thy presence find,

And prove thy good and perfect will.

Charles Wesley
