Do you find yourself using those or similar words? It’s the same lament that Paul wrote about – doing the things he doesn’t want to do and not doing the things he did want to do (Romans 7:19). I definitely get irritated with me when I do this … and it’s not just the 1st

“Well done, good and faithful servant…” (Matthew 25:23) Do you long to hear that? Confirming that what you are doing is meaningful, that makes a difference?
