Proclaimers of God's Word: Hudson Taylor
Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself... neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
John 15:4

Missionary pioneer Hudson Taylor worked so hard in China that his health nearly broke. One day a letter came from a friend who wrote about the joy of abiding in Christ. The letter said, "Abiding, not striving nor struggling; looking off unto Him; trusting Him for present power...this is not new, and yet �tis new to me."
Reading this at his mission station at Chin-kiang on September 4, 1869, Taylor's eyes were opened. "As I read," he recalled, "I saw it all. I looked to Jesus; and when I saw, oh how the joy flowed!" Writing to his sister, he said: "As to work, mine was never so plentiful, so responsible, or so difficult; but the weight and strain are all gone. The last month or more has been perhaps the happiest of my life; and I long to tell you a little of what the Lord has done for my soul."
This became known as "Hudson Taylor's Spiritual Secret." Proclaiming the Word is not something we do for Christ but something He does through us as we abide in Him. Are you abiding in Him today?
The branch...rests in union and communion with the vine; and at the right time, and in the right way, is the right fruit found on it.
