The Lord's Approval

All that has been for the Lord or from the Lord among His saints shall be owned in His day. All grace in them, all love, all service, all suffering for Him or for righteousness, all forms and measures of these and kindred things, shall be accepted and honored. But so, I add, all learning of His mind shall have its acceptance with Him, and its own proper joy in that day. It may be but small in comparison, but it will have its measure. Servants, lovers, imitators, martyrs, shall be accepted then, but so shall disciples. I claim a place in that day when "every man shall have praise of God," for those who, in the midst of human mistakes and misjudgments, have learned and prized and held to the thoughts and principles of the divine wisdom, of the mind of God in the progress of His dispensations.
