Waste

Waste — “Before we knew God as our Father, we were unwitting servants to the powers that be, which are nothing compared to God. But now that we truly know Him and are intimately known by Him, why would we for a moment consider turning back to those weak and feeble principles of religion, as though we were still subject to them? Why would we want to scrupulously observe rituals like special days, celebrations of the new moon, annual festivals, and sacred years? I’m so alarmed about you that I’m beginning to wonder if my labor in ministry among you was a waste of time!” (Galatians 4:8-11, The Passion Translation)

I wonder if Christ ever thinks His sacrifice was a waste of time? I would say NO! He loves us with an everlasting love. I can understand Paul’s frustration with the believers of his time. We aren’t much different today with all of our manmade structures. The religion of today is more about self than caring for others.

Yet, I read in Matthew 14:14 (TPT), “So when Jesus landed He had a huge crowd waiting for Him. Seeing so many people, His heart was deeply moved with compassion toward them, so He healed all the sick who were in the crowd.”

Jesus still has the same compassion today that He did back then! How about us? Do we have that same compassion? If not, ask Holy Spirit to help you see through the eyes of Jesus!

Be a Blessing, Sir Gregory
