Matt 6:24
"We claim, and often tell God in prayer, that it is our "sole desire to server Him in the kingdom"
But about this claim, WE can show right now whether this is sincerity or just fancy words. IF we really do desire to "serve God throughout eternity", we shall be serving Him NOW with ALL our present mortal strength and life, and mind and goods, or else all our fine words are froth. We shall recognize that we have no time to spare -- yea, we shall have no DESIRE -- for anything else except providing the bare necessities of life so that we may wholly serve Him.
Does our way of life confirm or belie our so noble protestations. Do we think God is deceived by mere words?
