Often when my sons were younger I would leave them with work
to do whilst I was away from the house. Sometimes
it was accomplished and sometimes not. I
loved rewarding the work that was done.
Jesus left us with work to do. He instructed us clearly as to what we are to
be about.
Matthew 28:18-20 Indeed Jesus approached them and talked to
them with this affirmation. “The entire privilege
of influence and power is bestowed upon me over heaven and earth. As you continue on the journey you have begun
instruct every individual in every gathering by immersing them in the name of the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Hold
conversations with them that instruct them to guard carefully every command I
have given as far as they reach. See
that I am with you every day in perpetuity until the completion of all things.
I am to be about the business of teaching others to follow
Christ. I am to do this through love, generosity,
and kindness. It is not only to be my
business but my lifestyle. Everything I
undertake should be informed by this assignment. As I approach celebrating Christ I must do so
by honoring what he has required of me.
If I am not living out the commission he has given me then I
am not truly celebrating Christ in any endeavor.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
