Let every skillful craftsman
                 among you
come and make all
that the LORD has commanded.

                  Exodus 35. 10

(Nothing we do is insignificant
       in how we respond to what
       God has
                   placed before us,
not even the smallest detail,
nor what no one recognizes
                   or acknowledges.
      Because He does.
Our work.  Our love for others.
     Even that little selfless effort
     matters for all eternity.
God calls us to be faithful.
God sees that it is good.
God uses us
                for His glory
      right here,
      even in this.)

O LORD,
If we only saw
   Your profound designs,
if we only realized
    Your divine appointments,
if we only trusted You
    in the journey
    and in Your direction,
we would be amazed
           at Your glory in this.
Help us this day
   in whatever You have given us
          not just to do,
          but to be faithful to You.
Cover our every response
          with Your name on it.
Saturate every detail with Your glory
      for Your Kingdom.
You walk us through.
Your Presence lingers still.
