What Are You Doing?

Question to think about: Are you doing what matters today?

One of my friends spent her last days in an almost condemned nursing home. She had lost what had mattered to her in the past but not her purpose. She purposefully taught me to live beyond limitations . . . to live fully engaged in an active relationship with God.

We live in an era that delineates the importance of a person by their position and power. At the end of the day . . . at the end of life . . . our position will not matter. What will matter is how we have lived . . . if we lived with purpose.

God invites us to live with purpose, actively engaged with what matters.

It is clear that Christ-followers are sent to do a specific task:
"I sent you to harvest where you didn't plant; others had already done the work, and you will gather the harvest." (John 4:38, NLT)

Christ said, "I sent you to . . . "
Think about what Christ is sending you to do today.
Do what matters.

Learning with you to do what matters,
Shalom,
Kerrie
