Sometimes we just don’t feel like it. Getting up. Going to work. Going to church. Doing some service, or ministry. We cannot serve out of a feeling with the rewards it might bring us. We do what needs to be done, because that it is right and good. Surprise of surprises, some of the times that we do it when we didn’t feel like it may be the times that we receive our greatest blessings. Don’t let your feelings become your god or even the barometer before action is taken. Our parents cared for us when they did not feel like it. The gospel message you heard that changed your life may have come from a very tired and overworked preacher.
Jesus, you faced the cross. You did everyday what needed to be done. You heard Your Father and You walked the path. Jesus, You persevered; may we be like You. Amen!
