The Work to Be Done.

By H. S. Zollinger

God has not given us present truth to be hidden from our neighbors and friends. He designs to have it communicated and distributed until it reaches the last one who will receive it. And when there is no one left but those who spurn it, the harvest of the earth will be fully ripe.

Then, though we have been brought in from the “highways and hedges,” in the very place where we live, God has a special work to be done. Our work may not be, in many respects, like that of another, but to each one will he appoint our work, if we render ourselves willing agents to do his will. Of this let us be assured, that wherever God permits any of his children to dwell, there is something for them to do. And let us remember this, that, if nothing more, we must let our light so shine that others, seeing our good works, may glorify our Father which is in Heaven.
