Calibrate and Celebrate
What God started, He completed before the end of the ‘day’ (Hebrew word ‘yom’ also means ‘period’) – no pending assignments! Working late hours tends to have a negative effect on your productivity, and leads to drowsiness the following day. So, try to finish your work on time.
We cannot let ourselves be stressed out, but have to set priorities to help us achieve targets in the stipulated time, neither should we overload ourselves with work that is not productive.
At the end of each day, God saw that it was good. The word ‘good’ appears seven times in Genesis 1. He didn’t use it to endorse His creation, but to allow man to relish and enjoy His work.
We reflect our Creator when we don’t do a sloppy or shoddy task, realising that work is a celebration of order and beauty. The rewards of positivity and discipline linger long.
Christ’s redemptive case is not to be limited to evangelistic efforts, but encompasses everything essential to redeem the world to its former beauty – to what God created it to be. We are participants of this by His grace and calling. He calls us to live and celebrate every breath. You make known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand - Psalm 16:11.
Success can drive us to depend on ourselves, when in fact it should bring us to our knees. In 'UNCLUTTERING OF THE SOUL,' Alicia Chole writes: ‘Achievements – even in small doses – can make us vulnerable to sins of addition: … adding self-satisfaction to the purity of peace.’
Abraham’s success was not measured from the land-miles he traveled, or the times he pitched his tent in different places, but from the times he sought the Lord – he lived his life from altar to altar. Life doesn’t end with a few mountaintop experiences. It also consists of moving on, venturing into uncharted territory. It will leave us unsure, insecure, unsettled, but that’s when He whispers, ‘You of little faith. I have a plan!’
Father, though I’m unsure where I’m headed, help me each day to innovate, create, calibrate and celebrate. Amen
