The Missionary's Equipment

A life yielded to God and controlled by His Spirit
A restful trust in God for the supply of all needs
A sympathetic spirit and a willingness to take a lowly place
Tact in dealing with men and adaptability toward circumstances
Zeal in service and steadfastness in discouragement
Love for communion with God and for the study of His Word
Some experience and blessing in the Lord's work at home
A healthy body and a vigorous mind
