Worthwhile

"Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established."

-Proverbs 16:3



What a wonderful God we have. He understands our clumsy bodies and feeble efforts. He has made us to do just what we can do, and the rest we get to release to Him. In the hectic hustle and bustle of life, I often feel like I am not doing enough. I wonder if I am severely missing the mark and not attending to what is important to God. When I focus on what I am not doing, I miss out on what He has allowed me to do on a daily basis. On my commute to work, I get to talk to Jesus and enjoy my morning coffee. I can pray for my friends and encourage my loved ones throughout the day. When I am studying, I can stay focused on how the outcome of my schooling can be used to glorify God. When I call my husband, I am participating in a union that God created to sanctify both of us. Thank you, Lord. You breathe relevance into the small and seemingly simple things. You make every day a joy; there is nothing that is not precious that is from You. There is not one aspect of my life that You do not have supreme authority and control over. I am grateful that my life is not weighed by efforts, but by Your love. Your ability to make a masterpiece out of anything....
