[Manna - December 21]
Who is worthy? Revelation 5:2
LET us, dearly beloved, as we realize that thus far
God has counted us worthy to look upon the scroll
of His plan which has been unsealed for us by our
blessed Lord Jesus, the Lion of the tribe of Judah,
prove our worthiness to continue to look therein and
to read the wondrous things of His law, by faithful
obedience and loyalty to it in all things.
Let us not
undervalue our great privilege in being counted
worthy to have some part in the blessed ministry of
reflecting the light of divine Truth; let us prove ourselves
jewels of rarest value, diamonds indeed, heartily
receiving and beautifully transmitting to others
the light of Truth, and faithfully enduring the severest
pressure that God may permit to come upon us;
for, if faithful in these small things we shall in due
time be counted worthy also to reign with Christ in
power and great glory. Z. '02-333 R3104:4
