Giving Glory to Christ

THERE are two things very hard; one is to take the shame of our sins to ourselves; the other is to give the glory of our services to Christ. Now then if I sacrifice to my own net; if I aim at my own credit or profit, and give the glory of all I do to self; then do I "sow to the flesh" and was never cast out of self, but act only from a natural conscience. But if I give the glory of all my strength and life in duty only to God; if I magnify grace in all, and can truly say in all I do, Yet not I; then am I truly cast out of self, and do what I do with a renewed conscience.—Mead's Almost Christian.
