AUGUST 22
Wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s
business?—Luke
2:49.
|
Should we not all have the Master’s spirit,
expressed by His words? The Lord’s true saints have no
business of their own, for they gave their all to the
Lord at consecration. Their business they manage as trustees for
the Lord—not to be turned over at their death, in
prosperous condition, to their children or their
friends, possibly to their injury. It is to be used by
the trustee as wisely as he knows how before death; for
then his trusteeship ends, and he must render his
account. |
