2 Chronicles 12:1-13:22; Ezekiel 35:1-36:15; John 13:31-14:14
Aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands…that you may walk properly toward those who are outside… 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 NKJV
Sometimes we are noisy as opposed to quiet, and nosey and meddling rather than minding our own business. And yes, we can be idle when we should be working. Remember that we are exhibits in God’s “display case” for the power of the Gospel. Am I a solid piece of evidence that Christ produces beautifully transformed attitudes and attractive gracious behaviours in society? Eagerly strive or aspire to lead the quiet life of one who knows the Lord. —Peter Ramsay
May His beauty rest upon me, as I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel, seeing only Him. —Kate B. Wilkinson
