Naturally we care for ourselves and for our own benefit and comfort. We do not incline to put ourselves out, to sacrifice our own convenience, to serve others. We might do it for one we love deeply, but the gospel requires us to love and serve, with all our capacity for serving, those who are not among our congenial friends. An enemy who needs us we must serve. Even the most debased human life that we find in our path we must touch with our healing love and help with the hands that have been given to Christ. We are required to hold our life and all that we have at the call of love and of human need. We are to bear one another’s burdens. We are to have sympathy with all sorrow and need, to be touched even with a sense of the worlds’ condition. This law of Christian love puts us down among men just as Christ Himself was among men. He kept nothing back. He never thought a thought nor breathed a breath for Himself. He poured out the blessings of His sweet life without stint on everyone who came near Him, at last giving His very blood for the saving of man.
