What have you done since?

   Matthew 16:21-28

   If anyone desires to come after Me, let him...follow Me. Matt.16:24
While attending Oxford University, a young medical student named
Wilfred Grenfell heard D.L. Moody preach in London. As a result of the
message, he was converted to Jesus Christ. After Grenfell completed his
education, he went to the Labrador Peninsula in Canada as a missionary.
Several years later when he saw Moody again, he introduced himself to
the evangelist and thanked him for leading him to Christ. Moody
replied, "I'm glad to hear that, but what have you been doing since?"
Dr. Grenfell told him with great joy how he had been serving the Lord
in Labrador. "Do you have any regrets?" Moody asked him. "No, "
Grenfell answered. "The only regret is for the person who comes to
Christ for salvation, but then does nothing for Him."

   Sometimes when believers give their testimonies they speak in
glowing terms of having received Christ 20, 30, or 40 years ago. We
rejoice, of course, whenever we hear of the saving and keeping power of
Christ. But an even greater blessing is shared when fellow believers
tell about how they have been serving the Lord, not only down through
the years but also at the present.

   If you have come to Christ for salvation, that's wonderful. But the
important question now is the one Moody asked Dr. Grenfell: "What have
you been doing since?" Jesus said, "By this My Father is glorified,
that you bear much fruit "(John 15:8). That's what we should be doing!
-R.W.D

   O let us be faithful to Jesus, The faith we confessed let's renew;
And ask Him this question each morning: "Lord, what will You have me to
do?"
