“I would be willing to live and be farther serviceable to God and his people; but my work is done. Yet God will be with his people.”

Oliver Cromwell (1599–1658) English military and political leader

As quoted from "Dying Sayings" of Oliver Cromwell's Letters and Speeches by Thomas Carlyle

“Charisms are not distributed at random but are dispensed by God to supply what is needful and lacking in his Church at each historical moment. If they are from God, they usually do not flow with the latest fashionable trend but much more likely contain an antidote and remedy for the perils of the time.”
