CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
There was a time last year when I was struggling with the sin of self-pity. I felt as if I was doing all this serving for others and my family and no one was seeing any of it, evidenced by the lack of acknowledgment or thanks. My heart began to harden and I became bitter, wondering if anyone really cared. Make no mistake men, this is sin – plain and simple. Don’t be like that. Lead and serve without expectation of thanks or anything in return. To act otherwise is not leadership at all. It’s evil. So….
As I was sitting in the drive-thru at Culvers with my 7 year old daughter I began to wallow in this sin with melancholy thoughts. My seven year old kept asking me, “Daddy, look.” I kept ignoring her, thinking it was just another attempt to gain attention and I wasn’t in the mood. After numerous pleas, to my annoyance, I finally turned to look and tell her to keep quiet. She had one of those kid-writing tablets with the crossbar eraser. On the board was written “El Roi.” I then remembered she had been learning the names of God in Church. I asked her what that meant. Her response: “Daddy, it means ‘God sees’.” My heart melted and an overwhelming call to repent rang in my ears.
God works in mysterious ways, sometimes thru a seven year old. We are to work not for others or their recognition, but for Him. Even when no one else seems to notice, God sees. He is there during the workouts. He is there when you are on the computer and tempted to look at something you shouldn’t. He is there during times of depression. He is there and he sees you. To live in this reality is to live Coram Deo – a Latin phrase that means to walk in the face of God, as if He is right there………..because He is. To live and walk this way will help you battle sin.
