    We Are Co-workers with Him, October 2

    Service for God and with God

    We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 Corinthians 6:1.WGD 277.1

    In the life of Christ, everything was made subordinate to His work, the great work of redemption which He came to accomplish. And the same devotion, the same self-denial and sacrifice, the same subjection to the claims of the Word of God, is to be manifest in His disciples.WGD 277.2

    Every one who accepts Christ as his personal Saviour will long for the privilege of serving God. Contemplating what heaven has done for him, his heart is moved with boundless love and adoring gratitude. He is eager to signalize his gratitude by devoting his abilities to God’s service. He longs to show his love for Christ and for His purchased possession. He covets toil, hardship, sacrifice.WGD 277.3

    The true worker for God will do his best, because in so doing he can glorify his Master. He will do right in order to regard the requirements of God. He will endeavor to improve all his faculties. He will perform every duty as unto God. His one desire will be that Christ may receive homage and perfect service.WGD 277.4

    There is a picture representing a bullock standing between a plow and an altar, with the inscription, “Ready for either,” ready to toil in the furrow or to be offered on the altar of sacrifice. This is the position of the true child of God,—willing to go where duty calls, to deny self, to sacrifice for the Redeemer’s cause.—The Ministry of Healing, 502.WGD 277.5

    The talents, however few, are to be put to use. The question that most concerns us is not, How much have I received? but, What am I doing with that which I have?—Christ’s Object Lessons, 329.WGD 277.6
