When a fellow member of my church told me that I was attending to the business of others and not minding my own business, I was surprised and chagrined. Silently I denied the accusation and in self-justification told myself that everything I did was for the good of the church, even those duties others had failed to do.

I recalled that Peter, near the end of Jesus' stay on earth, was inquisitive concerning the future of a fellow disciple and asked, "Lord, and what shall this man do?" Jesus responded, "If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me."John 21:21, 22;
