My business is, with all my might to serve my own generation; in doing so i shall best serve the next generation, should the lord jesus tarry... the longer i live, the more i am enabled to realize that i have but one life to live on earth, and that this one life is but a brief life, for sowing, in comparison with eternity, for reaping.

More From George Muller

To follow jesus implies that we enter into a way of life that is given character and shape and direction by the one who calls us. to follow jesus means picking up rhythms and ways of doing things that are often unsaid but always derivative from jesus, formed by the influence of jesus. to follow jesus means that we can't separate what jesus is saying from what jesus is doing and the way that he is doing it. to follow jesus is as much, or maybe even more, about feet as it is about ears and eyes" (the way of jesus, eugene h. peterson, 22).
Jesus Character Mean
He that will have a cake out of the wheat must tarry the grinding. have i not tarried? ay, the grinding; but you must tarry the bolting. have i not tarried? ay, the bolting; but you must tarry the leavening. still have i tarried. ay, to the leavening; but here's yet in the word 'hereafter' the kneading, the making of the cake, the heating of the oven, and the baking; nay, you must stay the cooling too, or you may chance to burn your lips.

Without a doubt, one of the things which keeps us from attaining perfection is our tongue. when one has reached the point of no longer committing faults in speech, he has surely reached perfection, as was said by the holy spirit. the worst defect in talking is talking too much. hence, in speech be brief and virtuous, brief and gentle, brief and simple, brief and charitable, brief and amiable.
Simple Attachment Talking
The banks themselves were doing business on capitals three-fourths of which were fictitious. this fictitious capital... is now to be lost, and to fall on somebody; it must take on those who have property to meet it, and probably on the less cautious part, who, not aware of the impending catastrophe, have suffered themselves to contract, or to be in debt, and must now sacrifice their property of a value many times the amount of the debt. we have been truly sowing the wind, and are now reaping the whirlwind.
Wisdom Fall Sacrifice
Let us watch against unbelief, pride, and self-confidence. if we go forth in our own strength, we shall faint, and utterly fall; but, waiting on the lord, out of weakness we shall be made strong. having our hearts and our hopes in heaven, we shall be carried above all difficulties, and be enabled to press forward and lay hold of the prize of our high calling in christ jesus.
Jesus Fall Heart
Hudson taylor said, "the lord's work done in the lord's way will never fail to have the lord's provision." ...the lord's work done in human energy is not the lord's work any longer. it is something, but it is not the lord's work.
