Devotees of the Lord are like servants of the king

Satsvarupa Dasa: One time I wrote to Srila Prabhupada that I did not think myself a very bold preacher. He wrote back that he too once thought he could not speak, but by practice, he gained confidence. Moreover, he said, we're not cheating anyone when we speak, so you should not be hesitant or ashamed. Prabhupada compared the devotees of the Lord to a servant of the king. As the king is most honorable, so is his servant.
