A MEASURING ROD FOR OTHER PEOPLE?

Good morning, in the words of the famous Oswald Chambers a very godly man with a good sense of humor and a reverence for the Word of God. You can never give another person that which you have found, but you can make him homesick for what you have. If we are saved and sanctified, God guides us by our ordinary choices come and if we are going to choose what he does not want, he will check, and we must heed. Every doctrine that is not imbedded in the cross of Jesus will lead astray. Stop having a measuring rod for other people. There is always one fact more in every man's case about which we know nothing. It takes a long time to realize the danger of being an amateur Providence, that is, interfering with God's order for others. Our Lord's first obedience was to the wheel of his father, not to the needs of men the saving of men was the natural outcome of his obedience to the Father. Oswald Chambers also said the following, the snare in Christian work is to rejoice in successful service, to rejoice in the fact that God has used you... If you make usefulness the test, then Jesus Christ was the greatest failure that ever lived. The lodestar all the saint is God himself, not estimated usefulness. It is the work that God does through us that counts, not what we do for him. My personal challenge when I speak or write, is to highly encourage all people of all races and nationalities to first be born again turn your life over to Jesus and as you do this you will want others to do the same, and you will begin to see other people the way Jesus sees other people. You will want what's best for all people. That best is not the fruits of evil and sin, but instead all the fruits and blessing of being covered by the blood of God's great sacrifice. Jesus Christ our Lord.
