Spurgeon's Evening

Reading this evenings devotional I just wanted to point out something that struck me.

It is better to be the least in the kingdom of heaven than the greatest out of it.

How many times do we just want to DO more? You know like... we want to be part of the praise team, or we want to be the one that works with the youth. The scripture used tonight was "A living dog is better than a dead lion." --Ecclesiastes 9:4. Which later Spurgeon says :

A living dog keeps better watch than a dead lion, and is of more service to his master; and so the poorest spiritual preacher is infinitely to be preferred to the exquisite orator who has no wisdom but that of words, no energy but that of sound. The like holds good of our prayers and other religious exercises; if we are quickened in them by the Holy Spirit, they are acceptable to God through Jesus Christ, though we may think them to be worthless things; while our grand performances in which our hearts were absent, like dead lions, are mere carrion in the sight of the living God.

Nothing else to add to that now is there?
