From: Ellen G. White March 13th Do your best and God will accept your efforts. Take up the duty lying nearest you and perform it with fidelity and your work will be wholly acceptable to [God]. Don't, in your desire to do something great, overlook the smaller tasks awaiting you. Beware how you neglect secret prayer and a study of God's Word. These are your weapons against him who is striving to hinder your progress heavenward. The first neglect of prayer and Bible study makes easier the second neglect. The first resistance to the Spirit's pleading prepares the way for the second resistance. LHU 299. E.G.white Lift Him Up.
