"Oh, to be nothing—nothing,
Only to lie at His feet."
We used to sing that song, but I found out that people took it so literally that I cut it out.
Then a long pause, and some one says, "Let us sing No. 52." So they get up and then some one starts,
"Throw out the life line,
Throw out the life line."
They haven't got strength enough to put up a clothesline. Another long pause, and then you hear, "Have all taken part that feel free to do so? We have a few minutes left. So let us sing No. 23." Then another long pause. "I hear the organ prelude; it is time for us to close, now let us all repeat together, 'The Lord keep watch between me and thee, while we are absent one from another.'"
I tell you God has got a hard job on his hands. Ever hear anything like that?
Ambassadors of God
Believe that God Almighty can do something. Don't whine around as though God were a corpse, ready for the undertaker. God is still on the job. The Holy Spirit is needed to bring man into spiritual touch with God; to make man realize that he is a joint representative of God on earth today. Do you ever realize that you are God's representative—God's ambassador?
