About this Quote

This quote by George Muller speaks with the significance of humbleness and service to God. It is a pointer that as a servant of God, we should not look for worldly riches, greatness, and honor. Rather, we must concentrate on serving God and living a life of humbleness. This is because our Lord was poor, imply, and abhored in this world. We must not seek to be anything more than what God has called us to be. We need to be content with the life God has provided us and make every effort to serve Him faithfully. We must not be motivated by worldly desires, but instead by our desire to serve God and bring Him magnificence. This quote acts as a suggestion that our ultimate objective ought to be to serve God and not to seek worldly acknowledgment.
