A Narrative of Some of the Lord's Dealings with George Müller Written by Himself, Second Part.
“
May the Lord give me grace to deny myself, in order to provide for the necessities of the poor! How much may be done even by a little self-denial! Lord, help me! … It is a Christlike spirit in supplying the necessities of the poor, not to ask how little will do for them, but how richly may I possibly supply their need.
— George Müller
