You Are - "The Epic Poem That Is You"*
... That our works would echo in eterntity.
* No, there is nothing boring about you and there is nothing boring about what God has given you to do today. If you are bored, remember what Chesterton said:
“We are perishing for want of wonder, not want of wonders.”
Wonder at this: God has prepared just for you what he’s given you to do (Eph 2:10).
Nothing you do today is unimportant. God is keenly interested in the smallest detail. You don’t need a more wonderful calling;
you may just need more strength to comprehend the wonder of his loving ways toward you (Eph 3:17-19).
