The donkey
Sadhu Sundar Singh completed a tour around the world.
People asked him, “Doesn’t it do harm, your getting so much honour?”
The Sadhu’s answer was:
“No. The donkey went into Jerusalem, and they put garments on the ground
before him. He was not proud. He knew it was not done to honour him, but
for Jesus, who was sitting on his back. When people honour me, I know it is not
me, but the Lord, who does the job.”
The first test of a truly great man is his humility.
The greatness is not in him but through him-
– that he could not do or be anything else than God made him.
We too, should strive to live knowing that the greatness is-
– through us and give God all the glory He deserves!
“Lord, help us!
We want to empty ourselves of our desires and our agendas, and be available
for all the works you want to do through us!
And Lord, we want to live a life of honouring You for every work!
Thank you for loving us and helping us along the way.
In the Name of Jesus, Amen!”
