Watchman Nee Daily Devotional for 12/29/11. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Matthew 25.21.In spiritual matters we should recognize the fact that "time" is for "eternity"; that the service we render in time is preparation for the service in eternity. God places us in the here and now for the purpose of training us to be useful in eternity. Time is like a school in which we receive spiritual training and education. Whatever spiritual training and education we receive in time makes us truly fit for Gods use in eternity. Revelation 22 informs us that we will serve God even in eternity. Today the Lord places us among the children of God in order that we may learn together with them how to serve and thus prepare us all for our eternal service.
