Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Sometimes God’s servants shrink back from their duties, and what happens then? They lose the sense of God’s presence and the comfort of His love. When we obey our Lord Jesus as we should, God is with us; and even if the whole world is against us, it doesn’t matter as long as God is with us. But the moment
we turn away and try to follow our own plans, we’re like a ship without a captain. Then we may lament and cry out, "Oh God, where have You gone? How could I have been so foolish to lose the brightness of Your face? This is too high a price to pay. Let me return to You so I can rejoice in Your presence again."

The few drops of bitterness in your cup today will soon be rinsed out, and it will be filled with the sweetness of Heaven. Be content with your simple fare for a little while longer, for soon you’ll feast on the delicacies of angels. Yes, and even now,
by faith, you feast on the rich and satisfying gifts that God sends you from His heavenly palace. So, "let patience have its perfect work."
