This Christian never made the headlines as a great theologian or a silver-
tongued orator. He (or she) is a faithful, consecrated, born-again layman.
The foot soldier in the Gospel army. He (or she) is a Sunday School
teacher, an usher, a singer, a bus worker, a nursery helper, a parking lot
attendant, or a prayer warrior. His (or her) service is unheralded but
vital in the cause of Christ. His (or her) testimony adorns the Gospel as
he (or she) faithfully witnesses daily "in the temple, and in every
house," sacrificing time, talent, and tithe to the Lord.
Having served the Lord in the home, the church, and the world, this
Christian will one day hear the Master say, "Well done, thou good and
faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make
thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord." (Matthew 25:21) |
