Neither Run Nor Labour in Vain

“Jesus has raised us into a new world, He has filled us with new ends of Life, He has taken Possession of our Hearts, and altered the whole turn of our minds. He has changed all our ideas of things, given us a new set of Hopes and Fears, and taught us to live together by the Realities of an invisible world. May we then humbly hope that we are true followers of the Holy Jesus, and such as may rejoice in the Day of Christ, that we have neither run in vain, nor laboured in vain.” (William Law, 1726) 3:06 p.m.
