About this book

An 1898 devotional by Andrew Murray on obedience as the heart of discipleship. Murray presents the Christian life as a school in which Christ Himself is the teacher, and where blessing follows the pupil who learns to say an unreserved yes to the Father's will. He treats obedience not as bare duty but as the natural fruit of love and faith.
