What The World Needs Is

In Christian Work Our Initiative And Motivation Are Too Often Simply The Result Of Realizing That There Is Work To Be Done And That We Must Do It. Yet That Is Never The Attitude Of A Spiritually Vigorous Saint. His Aim Is To Achieve The Realization Of Jesus Christ In Every Set Of Circumstances.

If We Obey God It Is Going To Cost Other People More Than It Costs Us, And That Is Where The Sting Comes In. If We Are In Love With Our Lord, Obedience Does Not Cost Us Anything, It Is A Delight, But It Costs Those Who Do Not Love Him A Good Deal.

Let The Attitude Of Your Life Be A Continual Willingness To "go Out" In Dependence Upon God, And Your Life Will Have A Sacred And Inexpressible Charm About It That Is Very Satisfying To Jesus. You Must Learn To "go Out" Through Your Convictions, Creeds, Or Experiences Until You Come To The Point In Your Faith Where There Is Nothing Between Yourself And God.

Never Take Your Obedience As The Reason God Blesses You; Obedience Is The Outcome Of Being Rightly Related To God.

Happiness Is Not A Sign That We Are Right With God; Happiness Is A Sign Of Satisfaction, That Is All, And The Majority Of Us Can Be Satisfied On Too Low A Level.
