Mundane Missions

Short and sweet thought for the week…

Mundane means ordinary and repetitive. Mission means duty or responsibility. If we are honest, most of our days are filled with endless repetitive responsibilities, unlimited check lists, and ever-increasing in-boxes. Will we ever get to the finish line? There seems to be no credit, award, or merit badge for just maintaining a level of sanity as we survive another day.

However, everything we do is an act of service to God (Colossians 3:17). We forget that we are not working for the approval of men or even self-satisfaction, but for God’s glory. Yes, our daily duties might be mundane, but someone has got to do them. If God has determined that someone is me, who am I to complain? Each task is an opportunity to serve God.

“Whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to me, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance for you serve the Lord Christ.”
~Colossians 3:23-24 (NKJ)
