Authentic Christian Leadership Reading Plan

DAY 14 OF 14

1000 Gifts

Eucharisteo means “to give thanks,” and give is a verb, something that we do. God calls me to do thanks. To give the thanks away. That thanks-giving might literally become thanks-living. That our lives become the very blessings we have received. I am blessed. I can bless. Imagine! I could let him make me the gift! I could be the joy!

My heart can enter into communion anywhere and anywhere my hands can enact the Eucharist. When Christ is at the center, when dishes, laundry, work, is my song of thanks to him, joy rains. Passionately serving Christ alone makes us the loving servant to all. When the eyes of the heart focus on God the work returns to its purest state: eucharisteo. 

The work becomes worship, a liturgy of thankfulness. [Mother Teresa writes], “The work we do is only our love for Jesus in action.” - Ann Voskamp

How are your hands enacting the Eucharist?
