WALK AND WORK

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before hand that we should walk in them.”
Ephesians 2:10

Did you know that God has ordained every single work He has prepared you to do? What a privilege, then, we have as Christians to single-mindedly focus on the tasks that Jesus Christ Himself sets before us. The question for us is: What exactly are those works, and how will I know what to do?

Again, God’s beautiful plan comes into play. He sums it up in Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” As the good Shepherd, God knows where He is leading us. We may walk through rocky places, down in the valley or up the top of mountain peaks. He is faithful to lead us home, forming he character of Jesus Christ in us all the while.. And as we commit all the tiny details of our day over to Him and ask for Hid guidance, He swings wide open the doors we were born to walk through, to not only witness His glory, but also to actively participate in the building of His Kingdom on this earth. It’s freeing to realize that we don’t have to do everything. We just walk in the works that God has planned for us, He’ll take care of the rest.
