Wise Workmen for the Tabernacle
[Exodus 31:1-18](../../../kjv/exodus/31/1-18)
****
Whenever there is special work to be done God will find and endow the men who are to do it. “I have called,… I have filled,… I have appointed,” etc. There is a niche for each of us in God’s service, to each a special work is given; and for each those talents are imparted, which are requisite and adequate. “Created unto good works,” says the Apostle, “which God has before prepared that we should walk in them,” [Ephesians 2:10](../../../kjv/ephesians/2/10) . The talent for the sphere and the sphere for the talent-God’s call binding the two with golden clasps.
But amid all our work for God there should be Sabbath-keeping- *i.e* ., the inner rest of the soul. We are by nature full of our own works and schemes and plans; but when the spirit of rest enters us, all this is altered. Then we are not agents, but instruments; we do not work for God, but God works through us; we enter into His rest, and cease from ourselves. See [Hebrews 4:10](../../../kjv/hebrews/4/10) .
