An application of the word “he” in this passage would be an “opportunity” given to us by the Lord. He gives to each our own little service to do for Himself. One has a line of work different from that of another each having unique abilities or positions of service. Each believer touches the lives of others in distinctive ways. Each servant of the Lord meets with different situations and opportunities.
May we be encouraged, as the Lord may present such to us, to take them up faithfully, thus dispensing and receiving the intended blessings. How sad it would be to be so “busy here and there” that we neglect or do not take the time to do those things the Lord has marked out for us.
Communion with the Lord is vital if we are to properly balance daily “duties” and “responsibilities” with those special services which He may give each to do. Let us not be so busy about our daily tasks that the opportunity to provide some little service for the Lord “was gone.”
