In whatever department of
the Lord’s service He is pleased to open the door of opportunity to
us, we should enter it promptly and with energy with zeal for Him
and for the cause to which He has called us. This is one condition
of our acceptableness to Him. If we are slothful, inattentive to
opportunities, undoubtedly they will be removed from us, and given
to others, for the Lord is abundantly able to raise up one or
another to serve His cause without interfering with, or overruling
our free moral agency. Let us more and more appreciate what a
privilege we enjoy in being co-labourers together with God, and
especially in connection with this great service which our Lord and
Master Jesus is exercising, and to fellowship in which we have been
called. |
