God Can Make You Strong
Be strong, and do not let your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded!
~ 2 Chronicles 15:7
"God did great things for King Asa and Judah, yet they were a feeble folk. Their feet were tottering in the ways of the Lord, and their hearts hesitating, so that they had to be warned that the Lord would be with them, but if they forsook Him He would leave them. The Lord's design was to confirm them in His way, and make them strong in righteousness. So ought it to be with us. God deserves to be served with all the energy of which we are capable.
If the service of God is worth anything, it is worth everything. We shall find our best reward in the Lord's work if we do it with determined diligence. Our labor is not in vain in the Lord, and we know it. Half-hearted work will bring no reward, but when we throw our whole soul into the cause, we shall see prosperity."
