(from William Carey on his 70th birthday, to one of his sons)
I am this day seventy years old, a monument of Divine mercy and goodness, though on a review of my life I find much, very much, for which I ought to be humbled in the dust; my direct and positive sins are innumerable, my negligence in the Lord's work has been great. I have not promoted his cause, nor sought his glory and honour as I ought, notwithstanding all this, I am spared till now, and am still retained in his Work, and I trust I am received into the divine favour through him.
2 Corinthians 5:15
"and He died for all,
so that they who live
might no longer live for themselves,
but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf."
2 Corinthians 5:14
"For the love of Christ compels us..."
"and He died for all,
so that they who live
might no longer live for themselves,
but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf."
2 Corinthians 5:14
"For the love of Christ compels us..."
"Nothing in my hands I bring, simply to the cross I cling."
