I've been thinking a lot this week about how "my work" and "God's Work" (and Sovereignty) come together. As I asked the Holy Spirit to speak through me at the evening talks, I saw God move mightily. What is my role? If it's God working through me do I have to do anything? These are questions that entered my mind this week.
One thing I've come to realize is that God's purposes will be accomplished. As many have tried and failed, I cannot thwart the purposes of God - I am no better than them. So God's Will/Purposes will be accomplished. With that understanding, I believe my role in that work is to do my best to pursue Him and do what I feel He is guiding me to do. I should prepare lessons to the best of my ability and study as best I can, but all the while knowing that He will work. He will take any offering I give and do His work. As I "work" to accomplish His will, the more I strive to please Him and do the best I can, the more I get to experience His power flowing through me. I'm not sure if all these thoughts are correct, but they're some ideas that have been floating around in my head.
