Colosians 3:23-24 (NIV)
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will recieve an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
This verse has been a struggle for me lately. Well, I should say that it is popping into my mind on a regular basis. The Lord might just be trying to tell me something. Imagine what might happen if I listened?
My home, marriage, children, schedule, my body, relationships, and even my walk with Christ can all get pushed aside in the daily grind of life. So exhausting! I wish I had the energy to keep it all in perspective without the Lord reminding me of my shortcomings.
Honestly, I would rather do few things better, than all of the things poorly. Isn't that a goal that we all strive for? Or is it just me? Maybe others can do it all with great success..I just know that I am not in that category. I need to remember that there is a season for everything and that some "items" on the list might just have to wait until a later date.
Lord, give me perspective and desire.......
Blessings!
