I did not want ease, wealth, or honour, but to know, do, and suffer the will of my Lord and Master. I thought, "If I have made a mistake, God will forgive me, and I will take shame to myself. I will desist from preaching, and live and die a private Christian. But if God hath called me to publish the Gospel of His dear Son, I must bear a public testimony, and leave the event to Him."
