Measuring Desire for Missions

JOHN G. PATON once said: “There is a way to measure the depth of desire. Here is the measuring line. It is within us: How much are we willing to do to bring the kingdom to men? How many miles are we willing to travel in order to have it come to other men who are in heathen darkness? How much money are we willing to give in order to have it come to the world? All this is a very accurate test. Few of us will travel for its coming or give money for its coming unless we really desire its coming. Men’s actions often speak louder than their prayers.”
