On Duties and Dusting

Photo by glenngould

You and I have a job to do this week.

Our tasks may be very different--and likely they are as unique as we are--but they are equally valid to the God who calls us to do them. What we do isn't nearly as important as how we do it. Making a bed or dusting a countertop can have all of the importance of landing a multi-million-dollar deal or flying a plane cross-country if opportunities are taken to teach and learn and listen.
But the opposite is true as well.

Making a bed or dusting a countertop can be a sad waste of time if we complain or overlook the plethora of opportunities inherant in managing a home. Whatever God has called us to do this week is the very best thing we can do.

So let's do it in the very best way.
