The True Estimate of Life and How to Live

See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise. – Ephesians 5:15 My dear friend, you cannot do God’s work in the world, buying up opportunities for Him, transacting His business, if you are careless and indifferent about it. Be careful how you walk. I know men and women who are very careful when they are at home, and awfully careless when they are away from home. I know other men and women who seem to imagine that they can live the Christian life and do God’s work without being careful in the small details of everyday life. If I am to translate my life into service for God, not merely in the deeds done in connection with the church, but also in all hours, I will only do it as I live carefully day by day.
