Much, More, All

I received this short but powerful quote from Arthur Burt today through Roy Lessin's Meet me in the Meadows

“God can do MUCH with LITTLE; MORE with LESS, and ALL with NOTHING!”


Arthur Burt
"Surrender is the Key to Spiritual Success."

Arthur Burt resides in Gwynedd, North Wales. He has traveled all over the world to bring the Father's word of challenge and encouragement.He describes himself as "a piece of paper blown by the wind from one place to another", but more often as simply a vessel of God's mercy. "If you ask me who I am, I will tell you. I am nobody, and the message I bring today is that every somebody will now have to become nobody. We must lose our identity in the body of Christ, because Father will not give his glory to anybody but Christ."


Arthur Burt's message presents an antidote for failure and the key for spiritual success. What does it mean for Jesus to live His life in us? The expression of the heart of Jesus was, "Father, glorify thy name." Arthur shows us that when the glory of God means to us what it means to God, then we will be one with the Father and that only happens as we surrender to Christ.
