Here is a good word for each one of us.
“It is ingrained in us that we have to do exceptional things for God — but we do not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things of life.”
Oswald Chambers
The regular guys
The stay-at-home-moms
The widow who moves slowly but sure stays faithful
The hurried I-slept-too-late-but-I’m-trying-to-make-it 20 something
The assistant to the assistant who never gets noticed
Each one of us…
“It is ingrained in us that we have to do exceptional things for God — but we do not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things of life.”
Oswald Chambers
Just think of it this way.
If you are filled with the Spirit you will be exceptional.
In the day to day drudgery of an ordinary, seemingly overlooked life you will be exceptional. You will bring to that everyday life an undeniably supernatural reality IF you are filled with the Spirit.
If you are filled with the Spirit then you will manifest a love and joy and peace and goodness that prove Jesus lived, died, rose again, ascended and sent His Spirit to dwell in those who have been and are being saved by Him.
