Amy Carmichael Quotes About Suffering

Quotes about: Suffering

• Even though we must walk in the land of fear, there is no need to fear. The power of His resurrection comes before the fellowship of His sufferings.

  Amy Carmichael

  Land, Suffering, Needs

  Amy Carmichael (2013). “Gold by Moonlight: Sensitive Lessons from a Walk with Pain”, p.1, CLC Publications

• If souls can suffer alongside, and I hardly know it, because the spirit of discernment is not in me, then I know nothing of Calvary love.

  Amy Carmichael

  Soul, Suffering, Spirit

• We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.

  Amy Carmichael

  Pain, Heart, Night

  Amy Carmichael (2002). “Gold Cord: The Story of a Fellowship”, CLC Publications

• To me there is no more tragic sight than the average missionary. …We have given so much, yet not the one thing that counts; we aspire so high, and fall so low; we suffer so much, but so seldom with Christ; we have done so much and so little will remain; we have known Christ in part, and have so effectively barricaded our hearts against His mighty love, which surely He must yearn to give His disciples above all people.

  Amy Carmichael

  Fall, Heart, Sight

• Can we accept the unexplained, the loss,
  The crushing agony, and hold us still.
  And nowhere is that clearer vision given
  Which pierces a bewildering providence,
  And opens windows upon highest heaven,
  But where we see Suffering Omnipotence.

  Amy Carmichael

  Crush, Loss, Omnipotence
