Hudson Taylor was founder of what became known as the,'China Inland Mission',but is now known as the ,'Overseas Missionary Fellowship'.Hudson was a qualified doctor,this is an account of one incident that took place in China,' During an evening prayer meeting a nurse brought a little child to him ,she thought she was dead,a woman suggested that he pray for the child,''Yes, pray, '' he shouted back,'' while I work''.The child was blue and limp,his first efforts failed. Then he tried the kiss of life,after a few minutes the child's colour changed and she began to breathe,when she grew up she became a CIM missionary .' Someone said that Hudson prayed about things as if everything depended upon the praying...but he worked also, as if everything depended on the working'.Make no mistake, prayer does not excuse us from serving and working .but the two should go together.
