It may well be that [we are] denied triumph after triumph because we will not bring to Christ what we have and what we are. If, just as we are, we would lay ourselves on the altar of service of Jesus Christ, there is no saying what Christ could do with us and through us. We may be sorry and embarrassed that we have not more to bring - and rightly so, but that is not reason for failing or refusing to bring what we have and what we are. Little is always much in the hands of Christ.
William Barclay
