Are you willing for the work of the faithful to pour out your life blood as a libation on the sacrifice of the faith of others?Or do you say-"I am not going to be offered up just yet,I do not want God to choose my work.I want to choose the scenery of my own sacrifice;I want to have the right kind of people watching and saying ,'Well done.'"
It is one thing to to go the lonely way with dignified heroism,but quite another thing if the line mapped for you by God means being a door-mat under other people's feet.Suppose God wants to teach you to say,"I know how to be abased"-are you ready to be offered up like that?are you ready to be not so much as a drop in a bucket-to be so hopelessly insignificant that you are never thought of again in connection with the life you served? Are you willing to spend and be spent;not seeking to be ministered unto,but to minister?Some saints cannot do menial work and remain saints because it is beneath their dignity.
"Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith,I joy and rejoice with you all."
