“Here is the perversity of sin: for you would work and toil your entire life for My cause, yet you will not so much as begin to seek the very one for whom you labor.” (taken from Tears from a Lonely God - Chapter One: Seek My Face.)

I’m convinced that God does not want busybodies, running around trying their very best to do what they believe is in God’s best interest. Rather, I think that God is looking for those that are willing to stop and consider who God is, what pleases Him, and what He actually has planned for a person’s life.

It is much easier, and the work much more heartfelt and sincere, when your boss is someone you care about, and your employer is one whose missions and objectives you intimately understand and follow.

“Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.” -Jeremiah 9:23-24
