"If we are delivered from law-works—as, thank God, we are, if we are true Christians—it is not that we should be good-for-nothing self pleasers, but that life-works might be produced in us, to the glory of Him whose name we bear, whose we are, and whom we are bound, by every argument, to love, obey and serve. May we earnestly seek to apply our hearts to this practical line of things. We are imperatively called upon to do so, and we may fully count upon the abundant grace of our Lord Jesus Christ to enable us to respond to the call, spite of the ten thousand difficulties and hindrances that lie in our way. Oh for a deeper work of grace in our souls, a closer walk with God, a more pronounced discipleship!"
