Be a Worker for Jesus

INTRODUCTION TO CHAPTER XXVI

BY C. C. MCCABE

“Forth in Thy name, O Lord, I go, My daily labor to pursue, Thee, only Thee, resolved to know, In all I think, or speak, or do.”

The manifold relations that a boy sustains to society forces him to labor in many spheres, and each has its special compensation, but the noblest and best rewarded service is for Jesus. Such calls into exercise the purest impulses, inspires the best deeds, grants the truest freedom and protects against destroying vices.

—Nevin B. Mathes.

You cannot serve a better Master. He will set you free and keep you so. Any other service is slavery—but His service is perfect freedom. Work for Him. Let your life count upon the side of Christ, and for the welfare of the world.

You cannot imagine what a glorious destiny is before you if you give yourself and your life to Him.
