Then will even the merest drudgery of duty cease to humble us, when we transfigure it by the glory of our own spirit.” WorldMindHeartHomeSpiritOrderDutyGloryMercyHumbleCeaseSerenityMajestySanctityDrudgeryTender Mercies Book:Endeavors After the Christian Life: A Volume of Discourses Source: Endeavors After the Christian Life: A Volume of Discourses
“The distribution of tasks among the various employees follows a simple rule, which is that the duty of the members of each category is to do as much work as they possibly can, so that only a small part of that work need be passed to the category above.

“The teaching of the Sermon on the Mount is not--Do your duty, but--Do what is not your duty. It is not your duty to go the second mile, to turn the other cheek, but Jesus says if we are His disciples we shall always do these things. There will be no spirit of--"Oh, well, I cannot do any more, I have been so misrepresented and misunderstood". . . Never look for right in the other man, but never cease to be right yourself. We are always looking for justice; the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount is--Never look for justice, but never cease to live it.” IfsMenWellsLooksHas BeensSpiritTurnsJesusJusticeTeachingDutyMilesCeaseCheeksDiscipleSermonsMisunderstoodOh WellSermon On The MountTurn The Other Cheek Book:My Utmost for His Highest Source: My Utmost for His Highest
