So now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you? Only to fear the
LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your
heart and with all your soul.
"We learned a stupid song in Sunday School today."
"What was the song?" the mother asked.
"It says Jesus wants us to be his sunbeam."
"What's stupid about that?" said the mother.
"Because," the little boy fumed, "I don't want to be a sunbeam. I want to be a truck driver."
Don't buy into the idea that serving God is an either/or situation. You can be a truck driver and
be Jesus' sunbeam at the same time. No matter where you are in life, you have a holy and
awesome purpose for living. Never forget that.
(Deuteronomy 10.12
NRSV)
A little boy came home from church looking visibly upset. His mother asked what was wrong.
God of all servants, may I serve you with joy as I work to make a living. Amen.
