“Put your heart and soul into every activity you do, as though you are doing it for the Lord himself and not merely for others. For we know that we will receive a reward, an inheritance from the Lord, as we serve the Lord Yahweh, the Anointed One!”
Colossians 3:23-24 TPT
Recently we had received some millet grain and Monika (my flatmate) sat and sifted it for over an hour to remove all impurities and then at dusk she walked to the mill and left it to be ground. No impurities could be left or the whole batch would have been spoiled by the impurity. This speaks to me. Even in fun activities.
Yesterday whilst Monika worked the grain her sister Martha, two friends of mine and I played a game called Kwirkle. When playing games it is easy to play with selfish motives. Selfishness can cause us to cheat or steal. Not a good look, we can also become envious of the winner. Games really sift our attitudes and motives.
Today I have language school. This is where I know I am needing Christ-like characteristics, however, even in fun stuff we must be on guard.
Impurity in our lives causes us to limp. Whereas wholeness causes us to run. We are God’s workmanship and need to display His glory. Amen!
