Yesterday was a busy day filled with many small accomplishments: two loads of laundry washed and folded, some spackling long over-due finally done, organization of a closet and clothes, meal made, home schooling accomplished (thanks to my very independent students!), running a couple errands..
At one point I thought how busy yet boring the day was. I realized that it’s all in my perspective. The Word teaches us young women (I’m still in that category!) to be workers at home. I was satisfied when I realized that I’d fulfilled that directive. I also thought of those who aren’t presently doing the ‘mundane’ routine of life but are instead at doctor’s visits or hospitals to attend their loved ones who are battling illness or trauma. I realized how very blessed and I am to be living day to day doing the sometimes boring ‘homework’.
Yes, godliness with contentment is truly GREAT GAIN.
Teach me, O Lord, to be content no matter what I’m doing and what You’re doing. For the ‘great things’ are probably not so impressive in Your sight as the humble and hidden things. Glory to Your Name, Glorious One!
Amen
