Him, and it will be a thousand times better and happier to obey your King
than to please yourself. And He Himself will help you to do it; only look
up to Him for grace to obey, and He will give it.

"Whatsoever He saith unto you, _do_ it." Do not just think about doing
it, or talk about doing it, but _do_ it! "Do _it!_" Do the exact thing He
would have you do, not something a little bit different, or something
which you think will be very nearly the same, but do _"it."_

And "do it" at once. It is so true, that "the very first moment is the
easiest for obedience." Every minute that you put off doing the right
thing makes it harder. Do not let your King have to "speak twice" to you.
"Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it" cheerfully, exactly, and instantly.

"Jesus, help me, I am weak;
Let me put my trust in Thee;
Teach me how and what to speak;
Loving Saviour, care for me.
Dear Saviour, hear me,
Hear a little child to-day;
Hear, oh hear me;
Hear me when I pray."
