A Brighter Day Begins with His Word.

Meyer, F. B. (Frederick Brotherton), 1847-1929 • SECTION 74

Part 74

← Love to the Uttermost Expositions of John XIII.-XXI.

These noble words, when we have made the needful alterations and adaptations, are most applicable to our present point. Let us dedicate ourselves to the great task before us, and to which Jesus has pledged us. Let us devote ourselves to this great cause for which Jesus died. Let us highly resolve that He shall not have died in vain. Let us offer and present ourselves, our souls and bodies, to be a reasonable, holy, and living sacrifice unto God, that His will might be done through us, as it is done in heaven.

"My Master, lead me to Thy door; Pierce this now willing ear once more; Thy bonds are freedom, let me stay With Thee, to toil, endure, obey.

"Yes; ear and hand, and thought and will! Use all in Thy dear slavery still! Self's weary liberties I cast Beneath Thy feet; there keep them fast."
