All of the Lord’s
servants should call attention to the Lord and not to themselves.
Let us each bend our energies to pointing men to the Lamb of God,
and not to self-seeking. Modesty is a gem, wherever found, one of
the graces of the Spirit, which all of the Lord’s consecrated ones
should seek to have largely developed and well polished. And let us
remember that following Jesus, in the best sense, means that we walk
in His paths, strive to do as nearly as we are able what He would do
today, taking our lessons from what He did and said personally, and
from the instructions which He has left for us, through the
Apostles, respecting the path of fellowship in His sufferings, the
path to glory and reward in His Kingdom. |
