My Mission to China
The memoirs of Hudson Taylor remind us of the risks and rewards of obeying the call.
Shortly after my conversion, I retired to my own chamber to spend time in communion with God, pouring out my soul before Him. I was a child under the age of 16, but I remember the occasion well.
As an outlet for my love and gratitude for God, I sought for Him to give me a self-denying service, no matter what it might be.
I put myself, my life, my friends–my all–upon the altar. A deep solemnity came over my soul with the assurance that my offering was accepted.
