This is the only assurance any
true believer needs when called
upon to sacrifice for his Lord. Any
true follower of Jesus when
asked to take part in any of God's
work needs only this assurance to

The Lord hath need of it. We do
not have to have great wealth or
high position to serve Christ in a
great way. The greatness of an act
does not lie in what we do or in
what we give, but in the spirit
that prompts such acts or gifts.

that the old order had come to an
end. Men took great pride in the
great and ' magnificent temple
building. The Lord knew that from
this time henceforth his body
would be the temple; with himself
as high priest and his flowing
blood washing the sins of human

ple he was filled with great emo
tions. He had come to fulfill the
law and the prophets. It was not
many days hence when he would
be raised upon the cross. Even his

News of His Resurrection
The part of our lesson taken from
Luke's gospel tells us that when
Jesus drew nigh unto Jerusalem he
wept over it.
We have two accounts of the
Lord's weeping. At one time he
wept at the tomb of Lazarus. This
time he wept over a city that had
failed to take advantage of its God
given opportunities Each instance
shows us how tenderhearted he
was when brought face to face
with suffering.
