The best thing any man can do toward the cultivation of a state or county is to cultivate well his own farm, or his own field or garden. He would not be a very useful man who would spend his time in finding fault with his neighbor's farming, or with the general state of agriculture and allow his own field to become overgrown with weeds and thorns.
And the same is true in the church. The only revival that will bless the church is that which shall begin in the individual hearts of the church membership. And the very first thing for every Christian to do, is to secure the quickening and reviving of his own spiritual life.
