And Having then such a prospect of felicity before us; let us not be weary Greek, μη εκκακωμεν, let us not be discouraged, or flag; in well-doing Or in sowing to the Spirit, whatever labour and fatigue, whatever expense and difficulty, it may be attended with; for in due season When the harvest is come, or in that proper time which the wisdom and goodness of God hath appointed, and for which it is our duty and interest patiently to wait; we shall reap Abundant and ample fruit; if we faint not If we do not suffer our hands to hang down, either through lukewarmness and sloth, or through timidity and fear. As we have, therefore, opportunity That is, while God continues life to us, and the season of sowing lasts; let us According to our ability, at whatever time or place, and in whatever manner we can; do good Of every possible kind, and in every possible degree; unto all men Neighbours or strangers, good or evil, friends or enemies; but especially unto them who are of the household of faith Who, being united to us in the bonds of Christian faith and love, are on that account of the family of God, and our brethren and sisters in Christ; and therefore have a peculiar claim to our regard. Observe, reader, the opportunity here spoken of for doing good, generally speaking, is our life-time; but there are also many particular opportunities frequently occurring from time to time. Let us remember Satan is quickened in doing hurt by the shortness of the time; (Revelation 12:12;) by the same consideration let us be quickened in doing good.
