Purpose – Christ – Charles Spurgeon

It is said of Thomas Pett, the miser, that his pulse rose and fell with the funds. He never lay down or rose that he did not bless the inventor of compound interest. His one gloomy apartment was never brightened with coal, candle, or the countenance of a visitor, and he never ate a morsel at his own expense. Of course, he made money, for he gave himself wholly to it; and we ought not to forget that the same single – mindedness and self-denial would make Christians rich towards God. What is wanted in the service of Christ, is the same unity of purpose which has ruled all men who have won the object for which they lived. He who makes God’s glory the one only aims before which all other things bow themselves, is the man to bring honor to his Lord.
