Serving This Day

Are you waiting to hear God's plan for your life so you can begin?  Do you hope to do something really worthwhile for the Kingdom someday?  Do you think your life is out there "somewhere over the rainbow" and that someday, when you get there, you're finally going to fly like the Bluebird "way up high?"  I don't really think so. 

Martin Luther once said, "There are only two days on my calendar, this day and that Day."  Annie Dillard said, "How we live our days is how we live our lives."  In other words, life won't begin someday, it's already started. As Paul wrote in 2 Cor 6:2b, "Now is the time of God"s favor, now is the day of salvation."  

God has placed you on a path with divine intersections all along the way to allow you to serve Him. And one day, he may have a mega-opportunity set before you. But for now, His purpose is for you to serve daily where you are with what you have, and in so doing, you may be accomplishing much more than you know.

Just so you know, here are your marching orders - your purpose: "Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the household of believers" (Gal 6:10).  Jus' Say'n.
