Even In What Doesn't Look Like It

 

Fulfill your ministry...

           2 Timothy 4.5

(Our daily agenda,

no matter what form it takes,

to be faithful not just

   to what is before us,

          but to God.

It is all ministry,

     our work,

     our relationships,

     our attitudes,

     the way we treat others,

     even casual conversation.

Every opportunity to infuse God's Word,

                 live out the gospel,

      bring the name of Jesus here.

Others are continually watching

    not to see if we are perfect,

but how we respond when life is not,

         to see if God is real.)

O LORD,

May we be fully aware

       and watching out

for times and moments

     to love others

     right into the Kingdom,

     right before You.

Help us to fulfill the ministry

  that You have given us today.

May we not just be mindful,

   but have the mind of Christ.

Be glorified in this day,

                  O Holy One.
