The Honor of Working for God.
CAN there be any higher honor? Is it not one of the highest gifts of God's grace to be permitted to take any share whatever in his grand enterprise of the salvation of the sons of men—to be a co-worker with God? And does not that man lack one great evidence of the perfect reconciliation of his soul to God who does not find something to do for him? The man who does nothing for his Maker, will he be saved? Can he be saved? The man who never cares about the perishing world, will he be saved? He certainly is not like Christ. If he be not like Christ, and have not the spirit of Christ, then he is none of his. Every Christian man is bound to give himself, or, that being impossible, to give liberally of his means, to the Master's work in that department which most needs him.
