It is the faithfulness, the loyalty to God, the loving service, that
wins the divine approval. Every impulse of the Holy Spirit leading
men to goodness and to God, is noted in the books of heaven, and in
the day of God the workers through whom He has wrought will be
commended. They will enter into the joy of the Lord as they see in His
kingdom those who have been redeemed through their instrumentality.
And they are privileged to participate in His work there, because they
have gained a fitness for it by participation in His work here. What
we shall be in heaven is the reflection of what we are now in character
and holy service.—
