Romans 12:3-13

When we get to the higher plane of love it will not be hard for us to work for the Lord. God hates the great things in which love is not the motive power, but He delights in the little things that are prompted by a feeling of love.

I am getting sick and tired of hearing the words duty, duty. You hear so many talk about it being the Christian's duty to do this and do that. Is there not a much higher platform than that of mere duty? When that is the constraining power it is so easy to work. It is not hard for a mother to watch over a sick child. You never hear Paul talking about what a hard time he had in his master's service. He was constrained by love to Christ, and by the love of Christ to him. He counted it a joy to labor, and even to suffer, for his blessed master.
