Principles and Practices - March 19

Christ the King

Try but in the smallest thing to imitate Him, to please Him, and your Christian life develops with indescribable rapidity because of the ever more intimate inhabitation of His spirit. Try, then, in small and simple actions to do what you think He would like, and tell Him that you do so in order to become what He wishes you to be, and your reward is sure.

-Martindale
