DAILY READINGS: Gen. 10 to 11:26; Job 13-14; Matt. 6:19 to 7:6
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep
His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God
shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing,
whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
The great and wise preacher, having surveyed and found to be
vanity, all that pertains to time; reaches the conclusion that the
whole valid duty of man lies in respect for God, and in the keeping
of His commandments. Why? Because God will subject every
human work—good or ill—to His divine judgment. Are you prepared
to see all of your works and attitudes judged by your eternal
and unchanging God? —Doug Kazen
Though evil waxes worse, and many hearts grow cold,
Help us to cleave unto Thy name, Thy faithful Word to hold. —Unknown
