all & everything

"I didn't know it then,

 this truth that sinks deep into my bones now ~

It is not our productiveness "for" God that counts,

it is our worship, 

our time at His feet.

It isn't our public life,

the accolades and the "well dones,"

the applause of the world that matters.

It is our silent, continuous reach for Him in the places where no one is watching.

It isn't our "world changing" that makes any difference,

it is the way we let Him change and shape our hearts to be more like His.

The only thing that matters is Him.

Not what we "do" for Him,

But that we know Him and His precious Son Jesus Christ."

Katie Davis Majors from her blog ~

Ten years ago she started Amazina Ministries in Uganda.

This quote completely blew me away.

I have lived seventy-one years to finally see the absolute truth in what is said.

Anything we do for God is of His making and design and He will bring it to pass.

Anything else is "wood, hay, and stubble.

To sit at His feet and to hear His word.

That is all and everything.
