Got this from a dear friend and I asked if I could share it. Modified slightly for ease of reading.
I was sitting on my front steps watching a bee find nectar on a nearby flower. Definitely feel like God is showing me to persevere in the work He has called me too, because through Him, I will produce a honey that others can enjoy. God wants me to work hard just like this little bee.
Then I saw a fly land on the same plant looking for nectar. Both were striving for the same cause. Both looking very similar: multiple legs; 2 wings; round head; but one works for his own good while the other works so that others can enjoy the fruit of his labor (Honey).
[...produce fruit that will last] ~ John 15:16a
Our Prayer:
God, help me to be like the bee, deligently working to serve others for you. By the power of the Holy Spirit, guide me to the flowers (people) in which a bontiful harvest can be yielded for your kingdom. Help me to be a "busy bee", but not to get caught up in mere busy work. AMEN!!!
