Ever been in a "funk"? I know I have...even today. But, what's that supposed to mean, anyway? Is it not feeling well? Is it not doing well? Is it wasted time? Is it not caring about anything (or many things) for a season?
I searched the word "waste" in the Bible. I found John 6:12 where, after feeding 5 thousand men (plus any women and children with them), Jesus had the disciples gather the leftovers. He told them to "Let nothing be wasted." Do you think that is an appropriate charge for us? Hey, you...you there that He created..."LET NOTHING BE WASTED!"
You see, just as Jesus created the miracle of feeding 5 thousand men and those with them, and even did the same another time for 4 thousand men plus, he has also created you! You, yes YOU are His creation! Have you contemplated the meaning of that today? Do you realize how precious you are?
If Jesus didn't want 12 baskets of leftover food to be wasted, how much more does He desire for our lives to not be wasted? Perhaps you will join me even yet today in renewing your strength, mounting up as on the wings of an eagle, and go...go forth...go on...go out...just go...
AND BE NOT WASTED!
