Charles Haddon Spurgeon, to young men and women who think they may be their generation’s savior:
If God comes forth, in wondrous grace, to call any of us to work in His vineyard, it is not because He needs us, but because we need Him; He does not set us to work because HE needs workers but because we need work. He calls us, not because He requires us, but because we required to be called.
