Do daily and hourly your duty; do it patiently and thoroughly. Do it as it presents itself; do it at the moment, and let it be its own reward. Never mind whether it is known and acknowledged or not, but do not fail to do it.
Reward
Jonathan McNeese
Soren Kierkegaard
The tyrant dies and his rule is over; the martyr dies and his rule begins.
Gregory of Nyssa
It is above all a good conscience which makes the bread tasty because it is eaten in justice.
David Stevens
Obedience, pure and simple, opens up a pathway for the work of God.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon
There is an essential difference between the decease of the godly and the death of the ungodly. Death comes to the ungodly man as a penal infliction, but to the righteous as a summons to his Father’s palace. To the sinner it is an execution, to the saint an undressing from his sins and infirmities. Death to the wicked is the King of terrors. Death to the saint is the end of terrors, the commencement of glory.
Thomas Watson
The more the diamond is cut, the more it sparkles; the heavier the saints’ cross is, the heavier will be their crown.
A. W. Tozer
Seldom does God use a person greatly who has not been hurt deeply.
