2 Cor. 10:18
"For not he that commendeth himself is approved,
but whom the Lord commendeth.
There is marvelous power in the weakest of men, when governed by a single purpose and filled with the consciousness and the power of God. Weak and despicable in themselves, they are often the chosen channels through which God pours His living water. A five foot man thinks himself tall when he compares himself with a dwarf. Always compare what is worst in yourself with what is best in others, and you will be kept humble.
Paul was always pressing outward to the areas that lay before him. These were vast unoccupied regions, which he longed to count as provinces in the Kingdom of Christ. This is the supreme test of a man. It is comparatively easy to build on foundations laid by another Christian worker, and to win away his converts. Such conduct is mean and cowardly. Open up new ground and do what you can do with Christ in you.
