“We are called upon to obey and follow our Lord the Christ, but it is not because of any fear of Him or of the consequences if we did not follow; it is the love of Christ which constraineth us, as we are told in the Epistle for the first Sunday of Lend. It is because of our love and gratitude to Him that we must follow Him, that we must strain every nerve to make ourselves like Him. That is our reason--not fear but love.” IfsFirstsReasonChristLordGratitudeConsequenceSundayNervesOur LoveStrainOur LordLove And Gratitude Author:Charles Webster Leadbeater
