Unaccomplished Aims
2 Timothy 4:20
Erastus stayed at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.


How many broken-down servants of God are there to-day, Christian men and women, who have proved their sincerity, who do prove their sincerity, but whose thin hand can do little or nothing in raising the stones of the shrine they so passionately desire to build? As in the busiest thoroughfares of great cities we behold wistful faces looking down from hospital windows, longing to share in the strong life of the streets; so are there frail, broken-down watchers of the work of God who long to share the toil and sacrifice of God's workmen.

(W. L. Watkinson.)
