Scripture:
“and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.” 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 (NIV) Application: God doesn't ask for tremendous acts on our parts. We can under-extend ourselves yet still please Him. Yes, we should dream dreams, and pray for the Holy Spirit to lead us to where our pure hearts soar, but pleasing God comes from how we lead our simple, daily lives. Living the local life. That pleases the Lord and makes us good neighbors. Prayer: Dear God, this day I lay all my plans at Your feet. I pray that my every simple act pleases You. Help me find joy and contentment in these small things, too. Amen.
