The Mundane

Don't you just love the promises of the Lord?

For me, going to work day after day, doing the same thing over and over (pretty much just doing all that is mundane), bores me and makes me anxious to go out and do something different. I literally day dream of all the cool places I could go and all the amazing things that I can do and see with my whopping 40hrs I spend sitting at a desk staring at a screen. I think of all the ways I can make a difference or all the things I can invent and create. I would much rather be sitting in my livingroom listening to worship music, doing art, than answering emails and phone-calls all day.

But through the past few months, I've come to understand that the Lord has me in the work place for a reason. It hasn't been easy to accept and I pretty much threw a fit when the Lord was teaching me this but, I've come to see that this is my mission field and this is where I can share Jesus and love on those around me. All I wanted was to do something great for the Lord but I can, and I am. I don't quite see how it'll all work out and what He's doing but it'll be worth it.

And that's not the end for me either. I will still be able to do even greater things for the Lord! Sometimes working every day makes me feel like; in the game of Kingdom awesomeness, I'm sitting on the sidelines waiting to be played but, that's not true at all. Jesus doen't just suite me up and train me so that I can sit on the side lines, nor does He put dreams in my heart for no reason. He will fulfill them. That is what He has promised me! Even though my dreams may not be fulfilled in my time, they will be fulfilled in His perfect timing!

Thank you Jesus for Your truth and Your promises!
