It's Friday, but Sunday's coming. Just thought I'd start with something witty, but my brain isn't really with it today.
Proverbs 31:28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.
So, I've been striving with much might to become this woman for this reward in particular. I would love to hear that my family has taken notice. Hmmmm.
Sometimes I would like to hear less about everyone's favorite wife and mother at my church from my husband and kids, and instead see that they recognize that what I'm doing is also good, maybe not AS good, but good nonetheless.
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Phil 3:14
I guess I stick with it, and put myself away, AGAIN, and see what course this all takes.
Sometimes you never see the good things you do, ever appreciated.
ReplyDeleteIt is at that time that I think of How Jesus suffered at the hands of "righteous men" for those same hearts.
When the light finally does come on inside those hearts who rejected him..they begin to see things in a whole new light. I too am one of those hearts.
It is at that time, "those" good things begin to take seed in the receivers life and the bud begins to blossom. We may never see the fruit in our years.

Our real reward is in heaven, not here on earth even when no once recognizes ..God sees all.
We are His sweet fragrant aroma, when no one else sees here on earth?..he is quietly watching from afar.
To God be the Glory!
