No man’s spirits were ever hurt by doing his duty; on the contrary, one good action, one temptation resisted and overcome, one sacrifice of desire or interest, purely for conscience’ sake, will prove a cordial for weak and low spirits, far beyond what either indulgence or diversion or company can do for them.

Not infrequently are Christians heard to speak of duties as crosses to be borne; and I am convinced that some among them regard their performance as a complete compliance with the law of self-denial. It is a cross to pray, to speak, to commend Christ to others, to attend church, to frequent the social meetings, and, indeed, to do anything of a distinctly religious nature. By the force of their will and with the aid of sundry admonitions they bring themselves up to the discharge of those obligations, but, on the whole, they feel that it should entitle them to a place in ‘the noble army of martyrs.’ I am sorry to dissipate the comfortable illusion; but I am compelled to assure them that they totally misapprehend the doctrine of our Lord. He said that it was His meat and drink to do the will of His Father; and He never once refers to duty in any other way than as a delight. The cross was something distinct from it.

Once we are destined to live out our lives in the prison of our mind, our duty is to furnish it well.

~~~~~~~

Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail.

~~~~~~~

Only when the voice of duty is silent, or when it has already spoken, may we allowably think of the consequences of a particular action.

~~~~~~~

Our duty is now…for the future.

Our duty was to assist anyone in need.
