Who would have know that a small dusty town in the Free State would become such a big part of my walk with Jesus. I found Jesus in the routine and day to day working life.
From building a stone floor with the girls to planting over 10000 spinach and onion seedlings in 2 days AND setting up TWO microgreen tunnels from scratch...all in the Freestate heat. Jesus really challenged me with endurance and working with excellence in all I do unto His name and for His glory.
Endurance and finishing with excellence has always been a struggle for me. I start a new project and I'm very enthusiastic but after a while the effort feels tedious and I leave it incomplete and move onto the next exciting thing. So when the stone floor started becoming tedious and taking forever to finish I found myself cutting corners and taking the lazy route.
Holy Spirit reminded me of how Jesus endured the cross for me and humbled himself and left His throne in heaven to be a living sacrifice so that I may be forgiven and live in community with God forever. So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
-1 Corinthians 10:31
