It is time for Israel
God’s family still operates
like that to this day. After attending to God’s instructions and directions, the
work of God takes all the people of God doing their part. The imagery of
1Corinthins 12 with its picture of the church being a body explodes in my
thoughts. Everyone playing her or his part!
The question that springs
from all of this is simple, “Am I playing my part? Am I doing what I can do to
advance God’s agenda throughout the world? Am I?”
Are
you?
Lord, too
often I wait for You to show me what You want me to do. Something doesn’t sit
right with me on this, probably because it involves a lot of
passiveness.
Lately I have
been thinking it is better to roll up my sleeves and begin doing something and
in my activity asking You is there anything I could be doing to advance Your
will more effectively?
Lord, is this
more what You have in mind?
My longing is
to expend my life serving You, but I can all too easily get sidetracked on
self-centered aspects of life. Teach me Your ways that I might do Your work for
Your glory. Amen.
