1 Corinthians 12:6
There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone
it is the same God at work.
On the expressway yesterday I came up behind a car with a
license plate that said something like “IwalkwGod.” I thought, “Me, too.” Then another car came in between us. The back
window was decorated with hats lined up all in a row. Each hat was different,
mostly ball caps. The middle hat
appeared to be a Marine dress hat. Many hats, maybe representing many roles,
but all placed on the head of the same person.
I thought about all the roles each of us fill. And I wondered how many of us let Christ
permeate each of those roles. Do we let
God work though us at work, in our social life, among casual friends, in our
family relationships, at church and in our moral choices? I’ve known some people who appeared to put on
God like they would put on a hat to come to church but it was not very evident
elsewhere. Our goal is to have God at
work within us in each of our roles.
Loving God, please help us to be filled with you each day so
that we may be the same even when we have different roles. May we represent
Christ wherever we go and whatever we do.
In His name we pray, amen.
Have a great day,
Paige
