If a commission by an earthly king is considered an honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?

-David Livingstone

This is what happens when you meditate on the word of God:
Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your words became for me joy and gladness in my heart, For I have been called by Your name, O Yahweh God of hosts.
Jeremiah 15:16 LSB‬

"Do not stay in the ruts where sinners live... repent today and turn with the help of a more mature Christian...."

From the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder's Meeting this weekend.

On March 4, Charlie Munger's will was filed with the county of Los Angeles. The first codicil contained an unusual provision. It reads (paraphrased):

"Averaged out, my long life has been a favored one, made better by duty...requiring righteousness and service. Therefore, I follow an old practice that I wish was more common.
[Inserting this] ethical bequeath gives priority not to property, but to transmission of duty."

There was an actor at a drawing room function who was asked to recite. And he stood up and he wanted to be gracious to his audience so he said, “I’ll recite anything you would like me to recite.” And no one suggested anything. So an old preacher happened to be there. He was sitting in the back. I don’t know how he got there. He probably crashed the party. Normally preachers don’t get invited to drawing room functions on a high society level, but he was there. And he stood up and he said, “I’d like to hear you recite the Twenty-Third Psalm.”

Well the actor was a little shocked at that but he had thrown himself open so he had to do what the man asked him to do. He happened to know it so he said, “All right, I’ll do that.” So he repeated the Twenty-Third Psalm with complete eloquence, masterfully interpreted it. Diction was beautiful. And when he was done there was spontaneous applause throughout the entire room. And the actor figuring he’d get back at the old gentleman said, “Now, sir, I’d like to hear you recite it.” The old gentleman hadn’t bargained for that. But because of his love for Christ he stood up and he repeated the Twenty-Third Psalm. His voice cracked, it broke, wasn’t very beautiful. The interpretation wasn’t really that good. When he got done there was no applause. But there wasn’t a dry eye in the room.

And the actor sensing his own emotion stood up and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, I reached your eyes and ears and he reached your heart.” And he said, “The difference is this. I know the Psalm, he knows the Shepherd.”

The following verse is on an old slab in a cathedral of Lübeck, Germany. It goes like this:
“Thus speaketh Christ our Lord to us: You call me Master, and obey me not. You call me light, and see me not. You call me the Way, and walk me not. You call me life, and live me not. You call me wise, and follow me not. You call me fair, and love me not. You call me rich and ask me not. You call me eternal, and seek me not. You call me gracious, and trust me not. You call me noble, and serve me not. You call me mighty, and honor me not. You call me just, and do not accept my justice. If I condemn you, blame me not.”
