He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:6 NKJV
For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. Philippians 2:13 NKJV
As a young missionary, my passion was to see souls saved and local churches planted. Then seven months later I became ill with TB meningitis and had to return home paralyzed. “Why did You allow this to happen, Lord?” Then the Lord impressed upon me the little word “in” in the above verses. That’s when I learned a great lesson. God is far more interested in the work He does in me than the work He does through me. —Sid Halsband
All we can do is nothing worth, unless God blesses the deed.
Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide, till God gives life to the seed. —Arthur C Ainger
