It's easy to call yourself a Christian, go to church, and yet not be committed to your King's cause. You can fritter away your life, or you can wrap yourself up in affluence and material comfort. You have one life to live. Do you see that there is for you a lifework with a future; obeying the command of your Master to go and work for him, to seek to extend his kingdom, to build his church, to make disciples of all nations? This is a job with a future, because your King is coming back, and when he does return, and asks you to give an account, you want to hear him say to you: 'Well done, good and faithful servant.'
