Divine Recompense

If I carefully consider others, God will consider me, and in some way or other He will recompense me.

Let me consider the poor, and the LORD will consider me.

Let me look after little children, and the LORD will treat me as His child.

Let me feed His flock, and He will feed me.

Let me water His garden, and He will make a watered garden of my soul.

This is the LORD's own promise; be it mine to fulfill the condition and then to expect its fulfillment.
 
I may care about myself till I grow morbid; I may watch over my own feelings till I feel nothing; and I may lament my own weakness till I grow almost too weak to lament.

It will be far more profitable for me to become unselfish and out of love to my LORD Jesus begin to care for the souls of those around me.

My tank is getting very low; no fresh rain comes to fill it; what shall l do.

I will pull up the plug and let its contents run out to water the withering plants around me.

What do I see? My cistern seems to fill as it flows. A secret spring is at work.

While all was stagnant, the fresh spring was sealed; but as my stock Rows out to water others the LORD thinketh upon me. 

Hallelujah!

~Charles Spurgeon~
