Be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord.
For many of us it’s hard to start a job and then stick to it. When Hudson Taylor, missionary to China, said good-bye to his wife as she died by his side, he knelt down and thanked the Lord for their many years together and for taking her home to be with Him in heaven. He then asked the Lord to help him carry on the work in China. His love for his wife was exceeded only by his love for, and devotion to, the Lord Jesus.
