IT IS THE LORD!
Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God.
John 20:2

"Give Me to drink." How many of us are set upon Jesus Christ slaking
our thirst when we ought to be satisfying Him? We should be pouring
out now, spending to the last limit, not drawing on Him to satisfy
us. "Ye shall be witnesses unto Me" - that means a life of unsullied,
uncompromising and unbribed devotion to the Lord Jesus, a
satisfaction to Him wherever He places us.
Beware of anything that competes with loyalty to Jesus Christ. The
greatest competitor of devotion to Jesus is service for Him. It is
easier to serve than to be drunk to the dregs. The one aim of the
call of God is the satisfaction of God, not a call to do something
for Him. We are not sent to battle for God, but to be used by God in
His battlings. Are we being more devoted to service than to Jesus
Christ?
