Ecclesiastes 10:7

A Devotional Book by C. H. Spurgeon is called: MORNING AND EVENING.

“When our Lord was upon the earth, although He is the prince of the kings of the earth, yet He walked in the footpath of weariness and service as the Servant of servants: what wonder is it if His followers, who are princes of the blood, should also be looked down upon as inferior and contemptible persons?”
