Excerpt from Living and Loving: Selections From the Devotional Works of Professor A. Tholuck for Every Day of the Month; Edited With an Introduction

Light in the centre illumines the whole circumference; and even so, when there is grace in the heart, it radiates its bright ness upon all man's outward employments. Martha then performs her service, but she does it with the mind of Mary. Holy Jesus! Doubtless thy labor in the shop of Joseph was as much a worship as thy prayers in the temple. It was ever thy meat to do thy heavenly Father's will, and with this hidden manna thou wert regaled even when standing at the carpen ter's bench. And the same hidden manna shall also be my food, Whether in my workshop or at my desk, whether laboring in the fields or Walking in the streets.

In every work, however mean, Some touch of heaven we trace, If but the heart within have felt The influence of grace. And art and skill, beneath love's ray, Their choicest flowers and fruits display.
