A DEDICATED LIFE
‘One shall say, I am the Lord’s.’
Isaiah 44:5
I. The great secret of true living is, first, to give life a focus, and then to take care that that focus is high enough.—Most lives are weak because they have not one distinct aim.
II. Now the question is, Is my life a dedicated thing?—In theory, I recognise it. Now and then I feel it. Sometimes I think I do and say something which may be said to be for God. But could I call my life a dedicated thing? dedicated to God! Where is the dedication? We need to be re-dedicated. Far better were it to have never been dedicated, than, after dedication, to revert again to profane and worldly uses!
—Rev. Jas. Vaughan.
