Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Barclays of Ury and Other Sketches of the Early Friends "Ye are not of the world,´ - ´I have chosen you out of the world´ were the words of our Saviour. The separation which our Lord intends for us is a separation from the world´s spirit. Jesus Christ moved freely amongst His fellow-men; He sat down at the tables, and mixed in the company of all classes, yet was He most completely ´not of the world.´ And we are called to follow the example of Christ, and bring our lives into harmony with His life and spirit... Each one of us receives a light from God to show him the path in which he should tread, the way in which he is to walk, the work he is to do, and the manner of his self-denial. Let us all be willing to bring our own lives to the teaching of the Lord Jesus... Then it is that we know how good the will of God is, and how acceptable to the humble waiting soul. We often hear about consecration and dedication of all to God... ´Who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the Lord?´ (I Chron. xxix. 5.) I long that all our members may willingly bring all their substance, all their intellectual and physical powers, to the service of the Lord, saying: - ´Here am I, Lord; all that Thou hast made me, and with all that Thou has given me. I place myself in Thy blessed hands to do with me what Thou wilt.´ The noblest form of enthusiasm is that where the soul and body and all their energies are completely given to the Lord Jesus."
