Tempus faciendi, Domine.
Let such as have received great things from God, maintain a certain greatness of spirit suitable to their interest in Him. I do not mean a haughty spirit, swelled with pride, for that is altogether unsuitable to a saving interest in God, "who beholds the proud afar off, but an humble spirit greatened by continual converse with the great God; who by raising up His servant's hearts to the contemplation and fruition of higher objects, makes them too big for this world."

--Arrowsmith, A Chain of Principles.
