Important But Not Essential

Do you want to snatch a day from the grip of boredom?  Do overly generous deeds, acts beyond reimbursement. Kindness without compensation.  Here’s another idea…Get over yourself!

Sound too harsh?

Well, Moses did.  Numbers 12:3 says, he was a “very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.”

Mary did.  When Jesus called her womb His home, she did not boast; she simple confessed: “I am the Lord’s maid, ready to serve.”

Most of all–Jesus did.  Jesus chose the servants’ quarters.  Can’t we?

We’re important but not essential, valuable but not indispensable.  We have a song to sing, but we’re not the featured act.  God is!

He did well before our births; he’ll do fine after our deaths.  He started it all, sustains it all, and will bring it all to a glorious climax!
