I cannot breathe enough of Thee

William Spencer Walton was born in London, England, on January 15, 1850, to Charles and Martha Walton. He enjoyed a pleasant childhood, despite being physically frail. However, his security was shattered at age 15 by the early death of his father.

From his salvation at age 22, Walton immersed himself in the Word of God, and prayed for the gift of evangelism. He served the Lord in business and evening evangelism until 1882, at which time he joined a mission society and labored in the British Isles until he was called to South Africa. During his first trip in 1888, hundreds were led to Christ. Walton then returned to England to establish the Cape General Mission in 1889.

While in England, he married Kathleen Mary Dixon, and they traveled to South Africa to serve together. Sadly, after only 10 months together, Kathleen died soon after their son was born. William continued to labor in South Africa, learning deeper trust in his indwelling Lord.

In 1893, William married Lina Gibson, and they served the Lord in South Africa through intense personal loss, war, famine, and plagues. In 1894, the Cape General Mission, merged with another mission to become the South Africa general mission, for the purpose of evangelizing and shepherding the indigenous and Europeans alike. Walter became its first director.

In 1904, the Waltons, with their three children, were sent to minister in North America and Britain for the mission. William continued serving and enjoying Christ as his true supply until his death on August 26, 1906, at the age of 56.

(Hidden Pearls-chapter 4)

I cannot yield enough to Thee,   
My Savior, Master, Friend;
I do not wish to go out free,
But ever, always, willingly,   
To serve Thee to the end.
面对你爱我甘让步
救主，恩主，知己
脱离你自由非我愿
你爱困迫甘之如饴
一生服侍我主
一生服侍我主

Lord, I cannot breathe enough of you!

I cannot sing enough of Thee,
The sweetest name on earth;
A note so full of melody
Comes from my heart so joyously,
And fills my soul with mirth.

I love you, Lord-My Savior, Master, Friend.

Lord ! I love you, 💞

My heart is filled with ecstasy. Oh how full of joy your presence is.

The First of the Feasts started yesterday; General subject: Making Ourselves Ready for the Lord's Coming. Lord make us those who love Your Appearing, who love You and hate the world; because the world didn't love You but instead put You on the cross, why then should we love the world that despised You. Lord we are widows in this world Crying out COME LORD JESUS!

I woke up this morning thinking of this song, let us love Him more and more as we see the Day approaching!

Lord Jesus I love You!!!

Hallelujah hallelujah praise the Lord

I cannot breathe enough of Thee oh Lord Jesus, oh gentle breeze of love. How wonderful You are dear Lord oh how gracious You are oh Lord our God.
