Listen from:
A doctor in a welsh mining town had a very remarkable nurse. One evening after she had worked hard all day, he said to her, “Why don’t you ask for more pay? It’s not right that you should work for so little.”
“I have enough to get along, Door,” she replied.
“You ought to have an extra ten dollars a week at least,” said the Doctor. “God knows you are worth it.”
Smiling, the noble self-sacrificing nurse replied, “Doctor, God knows I’m worth more, and that’s all that matters!”
She felt God had called her to her work, and she looked to Him to reward her for faithful service in His own time and way.
“Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him.” (Colossians 3:1717And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. (Colossians 3:17).)
