What seest thou, Jeremiah?
Jeremiah 24:3
The estimate a Christian must hold of his own value is what he is worth to God. You cannot judge whether you are right with God by His blessings because “He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” God is not meant to bless us; the vital question is — What am I worth to God? In times of affliction am I giving way to self-pity? am I badgering the throne of God for Him to bless me, or saying “Though He slay me, yet will I wait for Him” (rv)?
