The Right Lines of Work

"The thing that remains and deepens is the worker's simple relationship to Jesus Christ; his usefulness to God depends on that and that alone."

I am reminded of the lyrics to a song by Michael W. Smith: "I'm coming back to the heart of worship. And it's all about you. It's all about you, Jesus. I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it. When it's all about you."

I am always, always trying to make it about me -- my writing, my parenting, my friendship. I pray this Advent season that I might be able to make it about Jesus -- his birth, his death, his gift of the Holy Spirit, his relevance to every minute of every day.
