“Be Entirely His”

Decoration image for quotation

The desire that comes into a disciple is not one of doing anything for Jesus, but of being a perfect delight to Him.

The missionary's secret is truly being able to say, 'I am His, and He is accomplishing His work and His purposes through me.' Be entirely His!
