“DO THE WORK OF GOD”

“Wait a little while longer and do your works. I am your reward!” (Inner Word)

Our life is short, and to use it for both this time and eternity is the highest wisdom. Deep down, many people probably long to fulfill their purpose on earth. If they have not yet encountered God, their professional duties help them move meaningfully within the natural order intended for them. However, their perspective changes upon encountering God. They come to understand that the natural orders originate from God and that carefully fulfilling them pleases and honors Him. Yet one’s perspective opens up even further, for with this realization, one begins to understand one’s service in daily life as a contribution to building the Kingdom of God on earth. Consequently, one carries out everything ever more consciously for the glory of God!

The royal path

1 Cor 12:31-13,13

Earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.  And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.  If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways.  For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.  So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. Read More
