Sobering words from Spurgeon!

Each morning I pray that my day would glorify God. Sadly, much of that sentiment drifts towards normal life stuff.

Spurgeon’s words remind me that the space between now and heaven is a space for sowing, ploughing, and pronouncement!

We are plenipotentiaries of Jesus!
