WORD 2day:30th August, 2014

From the eyes of God
1 Cor 1: 26-31; Mt 25:14-30

We are not  called to do great things, we are instead called to do the right things, those proper to our call. As Mother Teresa would put it, it does not matter how big a task we do, but it matters how much love we put into what we are upto.

At times we compare ourselves with others...how much more or less we have than the other. It is an insult to our maker who has created us with such uniqueness that i am just one of my kind. However little or great the task entrusted to me in my life, what matters is not what is the outcome but what has been the effort.

We are called today to avoid both belittling ourselves in comparison to others and boasting in contempt of others. We will avoid both if we understand our life and all that is involved, from the eyes of God. For what do we have that we have not received? (cf. 1Cor 4:7).
