. . . there’s no burden too heavy, there’s no situation too hard for the one that you love. And if we’re love-controlled, love-motivated, love-energized, it’ll be all right when we stand [at the Judgment Seat], because if there’s anything about love, one thing about it: it’s obedient. [We must] get back to [being] a people who are really baptized with obedience, submissive to the total will of God, not concerned about human opinion, not asking for more to spend prodigally on ourselves, but say, “Oh God, I want this life of mine adjusting so when I stand in Your awesome presence, as [John] says, ‘We shall not be ashamed at His appearing.'”
