Fresh Life in God’s Service

NOWHERE in the Bible do we find any intimation that God wishes people to “wear themselves out in His service.” This does not mean that He would have them look out for themselves, and consider their own selfish ease. Far from it; on the contrary, He would have all do with their might what their hands find to do. But it does mean that whole-hearted, intelligent devotion to God’s cause brings fresh life. The truth of this is seen in the case of Moses, who at the age of one hundred and twenty was as young as at forty; yet he did enough work each day for seventy men. God is “the living God,” Christ is “the Prince of Life,” and He gives eternal life to as many as believe in Him.—Present Truth.
