Day 31, September 8, 2011
Today was just a normal day. Work went well because I got the opportunity to work inside
and stay out of the rainy mist. I
cleaned the house and prepared supper for my wife when I got home. I am now enjoying sitting back and
relaxing with my wife on the couch.
As I contemplate a perfectly normal day, Steven Curtis Chapman’s new
song, Do Everything
, is running through my head. They are as follows:
, is running through my head. They are as follows:
Your picking up toys on the living room floor for the 15th
time today
Matching up socks
Sweeping up lost cheerios that got away
You put a baby on your hip
Color on your lips and head out the door
While I may not know you,
I bet I know you
Wonder sometimes, does it matter at all?
Well let me remind you, it all matters just as long
As you do everything you do to the glory of the One who made
you,
Cause he made you,
To do
Every little thing that you do
To bring a smile to His face
Tell the story of grace
With every move that you make
And every little thing you do
Maybe your that guy with the suit and tie
Maybe your shirt says your name
You may be hooking up mergers
Cooking up burgers
But at the end of the day
Little stuff
Big stuff
In between stuff
God sees it all the same
While I may not know you
I bet I know you
Wonder sometimes, does it matter at all?
Well let me remind you, it all matters just as long
As you do everything you do to the glory of the One who made
you,
Cause he made you
To do
Every little thing that you do
To bring a smile to His face
Tell the story of grace
With every move that you make
And every thing you do
Maybe your sitting in math class
Or maybe on a mission in the Congo
Or maybe your working at the office
Singing along with the radio
Maybe your dining at a 5-star
Or feeding orphans in the...
Anywhere and everywhere that you are
Whatever you do
It all matters
So do what you do
Don't ever forget
To do everything you do to the glory of the One who made
you,
Cause He made you
To do
Every little thing that you do
To bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace
As you do everything you do to the glory of the One who made
you,
Cause he made you
To do
Every little thing that you do
To bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace
With every move that you make
And every little thing you do
In every little thing you do
In every little thing you do
This song helps us to remember that even our normal day to
day matters because we are living it before our Lord. I am so thankful that our Lord truly does care about our
normal days as much as he does our joyful and painful days. Thank the Lord today for His love for
you!
Blessings,
Greg
