Are not all of them simply following instructions? The construction worker raises skyscrapers step by step. The daycare attendant carries out her work step by step. The computer programmer finishes their task step by step.<BR/>What is all of this, but obedience to a given instruction?<BR/><BR/>Obedience to God is the prize. In no thing can I look at even a second's worth of effort and say, "Ah, here is an area where I know that I can serve the Lord." A person who knows they can serve the Lord with some thing will wander the left hand until they realize they cannot serve the Lord in any thing. Every Christian at every moment has the combined ability of every profession in earth and is of equal capacity to do every task under Heaven. Such is Grace.KLEXOPHOBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16309664947907287729noreply@blogger.com
