1 Chronicles 27

ORDINARY CAN BE SPIRITUAL

There are people that preach, there are people that teach, others that do wonderful Bible study, and those that make music, but if we don’t fit into those moulds, how do we serve the LORD?

The lists of people and duties that David organised for Israel before he handed the kingdom over to Solomon make for really encouraging reading. Yes, the reading can be a little tedious when we don’t recognise many of the names, but among the names we see long lists of the ways people served using the talents God had given them.

Sure, there were singers, musicians and army leaders, but even in just this chapter we read of many others who had a great range of occupations: accountants over the treasuries, supervisors, farmers, wine makers and vinedressers, oil producers, olive and fig growers, herdsmen, people that looked after the camels and donkey’s (cars and trucks today), shepherds, counsellors, babysitters, teachers, friends, and the list could go on.

Even ordinary things can be spiritual things when we do them with the right attitude and for the Lord. Whatever we do, let’s do it with all our might as to the Lord.

May our devotion to our God grow greater this week.

With love in our Lord,
Robert
