Rather, most of us are called to do mundane things such as changing diapers, making meals, cleaning up messes, laundry, painting houses, driving kids to school.
We’re called to do things that are tedious, repetitive, seemingly unimportant, and all done in obscurity.
Does God care? Does He notice? Does any of it matter?
Matthew Redmond asks, “Is there a God for the mundane parts of our lives?”
“Yes,” says Redmond.
He goes on to make the point that the scriptures are written to normal, everyday people.
“Most of them are nameless. They are Jew and Gentile, yes. But they are also not apostles. And most are not pastors. They are carpenters, farmers, traders, sailors, fisherman, shepherds, guards. They are mothers and fathers and children. Compared to the life of an apostle, their lives are probably mundane. These are ordinary men and women believing an extraordinary story.”
After doing the most exciting thing in their lives, which was coming to Christ, most of these individuals continued to live ordinary lives doing mundane things and being faithful right where they were.
And that is the challenge for each one of us.
