Diligence

As a liege servant of the Lord Jesus Christ, yielded to him as no longer your own, you are zealously to do his work, every day of your life, and every hour of the day; — “not slothful in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.”* It would be impossible to express too strongly the duty of livmg altogether for Christ; this is the entire business of life. There is no single lawful act, however menial or even despised, which may not be offered up to him. Thus business and even labour become religious, and you spend every moment in the spirit of sacrifice. If you go down from the Lord’s Table with this temper, you are happy indeed.
