The life must be holy that Christ will employ. The vessel must be clean that the king will use. The heart must be broken through which God’s love may flow. Someone gives a consecration prayer: “Lord, take me, break me, make me,” and tells the story of a golden cup which had been made out of old gold coins. These had lost the image and superscription originally upon them, and were then thrown into a melting pot and wrought into a beautiful cup. So ofttimes a human life has lost its beauty; and then the Master takes it, breaks it, and makes it over again in form of beauty. Then the King will use it.
