I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at rest in my house. Daniel 4:4 NKJV
As believers we enjoy the unsearchable riches of Christ and can find great comfort in them. At the same time, we are surrounded by those living in spiritual poverty. The Lord Jesus was anointed to preach the gospel to the poor. How am I obeying His great commission? We have the Lord’s command in Scripture to go out and make disciples for Him. Am I waiting for a personal invitation? —D. Sabourin
Must I go, and empty-handed?
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him,
Must I empty-handed go? —Charles C. Luther
