#Day 79: 19 March 2016

WILLINGNESS

Colossians 3:23-24 NLT - Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.

I was observing my wife since yesterday night; seeing her busy cooking for the cell group gathering till the cleaning part after the cell group. Then tonight, since the late afternoon, again busying herself at the kitchen, cooking for tomorrow's lunchies, to be sold after Sunday service.

I asked her if this is going to be her weekend activities, and she said it depends on the response of the selling.

In my mind, I was wondering how she get all her energy. Weekend for me is the lazying around day.

As I sit to think about my devotion today, I saw her focus and seriousness in preparing the "Lontong Sayur" ingredient, the soup, etc. I saw her willingness in doing all that. Which I know was the agreement with other women from the church to support the Fund Raising.

All revenue will be donate to the fund. Every single cents. I saw how her willingness enlarge her capacity and energy. I saw how her (and the others) willingness is the reflection of their love to the community, to the church and to God. That's the source of our energy.

2 Corinthians 8:12 NIV - For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.

In short, I am proud of them. Actually, the only thing required for us to be uplift is: Willingness
Another day full of blessing.
