DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 22; Job 25-26; Matt. 12:1-21
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:58
What a challenge Paul gives here particularly in view of the preceding verses about the Lord’s return. It is worth noticing that this verse does not say to abound in work for the Lord, but in the work of the Lord. What is the difference? We must first find out what He wants us to do, before we can do the work of the Lord. Therefore, let us search the Scriptures diligently daily. There is work that is done for the Lord today, but it is not the work of the Lord. Let us take care to do what He commands and not what we think. —Harold G. Smith
Teach me Thy will, O Lord, teach me Thy way;
Teach me to know Thy Word, teach me to pray. —William M. Bunyan
