Matthew
18:10
As with dependence so with humility.
Power and authority are given by
the Father to the children of men
for the establishment of His Kingdom
on earth and for the growth and
development of each and every one.
And all so endowed will, at the
end of time, be called to account
for the gifts and power with which
they have been endowed. How then
will they answer and justify themselves
who have used their gifts and power
for self-aggrandisement? And where
is the value of greatness without
responsibility?
The truly great in the Father's
Kingdom are those who seek to love
and serve their fellowmen in the
light and power of Our leading and
indwelling. And greatness and leadership
are gifts for service, not rewards
for it, though the one is not indifferent
to the other.
Constantly and ceaselessly present
your whole being to the loving care
and protection of all who serve
the Father in Heaven. As you are
caught up in praise and adoration
and thanksgiving, so will you know
the joy and power and utter dependence
of self-giving, and loving service.
