...chosen

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart; as for the Lord and not for human masters.. " Colossians 3:23

Whenever I'm disappointed with my lot in life, I stop and think about little Jamie Scott. 
Jamie was trying out for a part in his school play. His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen.

On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement. 'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that remain a lesson to me: 'I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'"

Whatever God has called you to do today - even if it's just to "clap and cheer" - do it with all your heart, to the glory of God.
