A Great Need

By C. M. S.

ONE of the greatest needs of this people at this time is greater zeal for the accomplishment of the work. Elder I. H. Evans said, in his first sermon at the General Conference: “If we had the zeal that God wants us to have, we could accomplish a mighty work in the world in a very little while. The cause of God needs men who are wholly given to God, whose hearts are on fire with the message. When the church as a body has that experience, then God can use each individual member as a living instrumentality to carry on his great closing work. It is now the night of time; the Lord is coming soon; and yet many of our people are not willing to give themselves and their children to God for service. Every son and daughter ought to be on the altar ready to go where God calls.”
When that time is reached, we shall not have to wait long for the consummation of our hope. Our slowness in reaching that point is delaying the work of God; while millions are dropping into their graves without a hope in Christ.
C. M. S.
