    Productivity for God must never take the place of passionate love for Him. Christ requires us to be both productive for Him and passionate about Him. Yet it is easy to become so consumed with the busyness of the ministry that we fail to stay focused on our passionate love for Christ.

    I can’t hear this enough. I have to keep reminding myself that the most important thing God wants from me is me. While he desires us to show our faith by our works but he wants us first. Jesus told Martha that Mary had chosen the best part to sit at his feet. The work becomes easier when we work WITH God and not FOR Him.

    @Michael I agree! Our faith is so cluttered with doing, serving and participating in one thing or the other that we hardly remember that the reason He saved us is so we can be with Him in fellowship. Lord, help us to know you more.
