For we know that on earth Christians are poor and little esteemed. It is a spiritual adorning; not gold, silver, pearls, velvet, but obedience to the Lord our God. This apparel is brighter than the sun, for these are God's jewels. He who goes about doing God's will, goes about clothed in God's beauty. To serve Him truly, is simply to abide in our calling, be it lowly as it may. WHEN one asked what was the best service of God, which pleased Him best? Doctor Martin said, " To hear Christ and be obedient to Him." This is the highest and greatest service of God. Besides this, all is worth nothing. For in heaven He 'has far better and more beautiful worship and service than we can render. As it was said to Saul, " To obey is better than to sacrifice!'

CHRISTIANS have to do with two kinds of business; the Word and the works of God. IN all works we should look to God's Word.

But all works which are not done at God's...
