08.31 Evening:


Occupy till I come.

The Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.―Unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.―Wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?―Leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.―Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it.―Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Lu 19:13 Mr 13:34 Mt 25:15 Joh 9:4 Lu 2:49 1Pe 2:21 2Ti 4:2 1Co 3:13 15:58
