Obedience

LOUIS A. STREMPLE.

The test of faith is obedience. God's son is always consistently sensible, always poised, always sane, always good and pure.

The first lesson for God's child is obedience. God cannot made a mistake when He calls one of His children into His work, and obedience is required,—absolute obedience. God's child never questions, but obeys with alacrity. The future call is prepared by obedience to the present. God decides our calling and our destiny. Questioning is always error, and is to be recognized as such.

All that God's child is belongs to God, and he must watch that he retain not a part for himself. God's will must be done, and he is a rebel if disobedient to the divine command.
