Finding Purpose in the Grind

Finding Purpose in the Grind

When Thursday feels like Friday but it's only Wednesday…yeah, that’s how slow this week is feeling. 😢😬

After a quick, “God give me the strength” prayer to roll out of bed, the first successful accomplishment of this week seems to be the coffee I just made.

Then the feelings of any successful accomplishments have a way of trailing off right there. The cycle of the ordinary daily routine has a way of feeling monotonous and insignificant at times. I know you feel me on this one….like, do all my little daily tasks even have a purpose? Does it really matter?

In all this “seemingly” irrelevant and mundane adulting, we may feel like God has forgotten about us. Yet, behind the scenes, we can’t comprehend how God will use us today in our “small daily tasks” in His master plan.

He may be working on growing our character, preparing us for a future opportunity, teaching us endurance….He is showing us gratitude for the ordinary because somewhere, someone surrounded by chaos is praying hard and would do anything for “ordinary.”

1 Corinthians 15:58 reminds me of just that….my daily tasks are not being done in vain. He is using it for the greater good.

Today, ask God how He can use you for His purpose through our daily grind...to keep the below verse on your mind and in your heart as you go about your day.

But first, coffee!! Because, let’s be real, Friday can’t come soon enough. 🤪

Much Love and Blessings,

Ramzi

Because we live and move and have our being in Christ, it makes it easier to go about my daily tasks, no matter how mundane, realizing that everything I do, is unto the Lord. That’s what brings me joy throughout my meticulous days.

This week has felt long and a bit heavy…not sure why. As I wait for results of my MRI of my injured right knee, I have been Blessed to spend even more quiet time with God and to hear more clearly His purpose for me each day. Sometimes He just wants us to be still and hear his still small voice….I am Blessed🙏

Yes, even though it’s a short week, for some reason it seems really long. 🤣🤣 I’m just thankful that as I go through my daily routine, even though it seems mundane at times, the JOY of the Lord can still SHINE. Thank y.o.u for your beautiful posts! Just by looking at the beauty of the photographs you choose bring in so much beauty and peace. Blessings!!
