Our Greatest Need
237
Those who are engaged in service for the Master need an expe-
rience much higher, deeper, broader, than many have yet thought of
having. Many who are already members of God’s great family know
little of what it means to behold His glory, and to be changed from
glory to glory. Many have a twilight perception of Christ’s excellence,
and their hearts thrill with joy. They long for a fuller, deeper sense of
the Saviour’s love. Let these cherish every desire of the soul after God.
The Holy Spirit works with those who will be worked, moulds
those who will be moulded, fashions those who will be fashioned. Give
yourselves the culture of spiritual thoughts and holy communings. You
have seen but the first rays of the early dawn of His glory. As you
follow on to know the Lord, you will know that the “path of the
righteous is as the light of dawn, that shineth more and more unto the
perfect day.” [
Proverbs 4:18
, R. V.]
