The most humble

The most humble Christian life

"His master replied: Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things — I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!" Matthew 25:21

There is never a life lived for God, which is useless or lost. The most humble Christian life writes its history and leaves its impression somewhere, and God will open His books at the last, and men and angels will read the record.

In this world, these quiet lives are like those modest lowly flowers which make no show — but which, hidden away under the tall plants and grasses, pour out sweet perfumes and fill the air with their fragrances.

And in Heaven they will receive their reward — not praise of men — but open confession by the Lord Himself — in the presence of the angels and of the Father.

"Then the King will say to those on His right: Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me." Matthew 25:34-36
