Let us watch in the sense of taking careful
notice of all the directions which the Lord our God has given us,
respecting what would be acceptable service to Him. Let us watch
ourselves, striving to walk as nearly as possible in the footsteps
of the great High Priest. Let us be sober in the sense that we will
not be frivolous; that while happy, joyous in the Lord, free from
the anxious cares that are upon many others through misapprehension
of our Father’s character and Plan, we may, nevertheless, be sober
in the sense of earnest appreciation of present opportunities and
privileges in connection with the Lord’s service—not Thoughtlessly
negligent, letting opportunities and privileges slip through our
hands to be afterwards
regretted. |
