DO you indeed believe that you are part of the royal priesthood? (1 Peter 2) —that you are a child of God, and waiting for God's own Son? Do you go through the wilderness musing upon all these wonders, knowing how to enjoy the blessings into which you are brought? When, for example, a little plan comes in, do you say, "No; I am waiting for Thee from heaven, Lord Jesus?" And then, do you know what it is to gird yourself afresh as one who has taken the attitude of expecting the Lord's return? Surely, if God is calling our attention to our varied positions and dignities which He has given us in Christ, and pours into our souls things of such character and moment, it is not a marvelous thing that we should be called to show forth His praises. I must say, ' What a heart He must have!' and I ought to be able to find water to satisfy my thirst, and have some for others besides.
