Being and Doing – 28 July – Power to Serve
GOD only asks from you what He gives you power to do.
GOD only asks from you what He gives you power to do.
Give what you have: to someone it may be better than you dare to think.
…He who feels contempt
For any living thing, hath faculties
That he hath never used, and thought with him
Is in its infancy.
WE MUST learn to see the good in the midst of much that is unlovely.
My own experience and development deepen every day my conviction that our moral progress may be measured by the degree in which we sympathise with individual suffering and individual joy.
Despise no soul, however debased, grimed, or soiled. These souls are God’s…. For all souls Jesus died…
may God, I pray Him, send me back the restless zeal, the hunger and thirst after righteousness, which He gives in early youth!
GREAT men, taken up in any way, are profitable company.
How godlike ’tis to suffer thro’ life, and die
At last for others’ good!
THE holiest task by Heaven decreed,
An errand all divine,
The burden of our common need
To render less, is thine.
