(J.R. Miller)
"Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called." 1 Corinthians 7:20
When you are tempted to complain and resist the difficulties of your circumstances, and the limitations of your place in life--remember that Jesus, even with all His divine life and all His great powers, for thirty years found room in a humble peasant home, for worthy living and for service not unfitting to His true exalted character.
If you can do nothing but live a true Christian life which is patient, gentle, kind, pure--in your home, in society, at your daily occupation--you will perform a service of great value, and leave many blessings in the world. This kind of life is a little gospel--displaying the wonderful story of the cross of Christ, in sermons without words!
"I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need." Philippians 4:12
