Life Under the Sun

Tuesday, April 3, 2012

The Jews accused Jesus of stirring up the people.
He impacts people of every nationality and age.
He moves them.
Some respond in ridicule, some wish to hide from Him, some see His righteousness, recognize their need for it as well.
He is not a respecter of persons.
If anything, it seems it's the unlikely, the weak, the downtrodden, who find special refuge in Him.
His way is to have those who would lead follow and serve,  those who are weak find strength in Him, the first be last, the last first.
In C.S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces, Psyche does menial tasks until she's reunited with the god. So our lives are often filled with menial, lowly tasks.
In whatever we do, we're to do as to Him, for Him, through Him, because of Him, for His glory.
Being unnoticed by any but Him can be a great blessing.
That He only may praise us, that He alone be seen, in many sometimes seemingly very small, insignificant, different people, treasured by Him, stirred up by Him.
