Last week when I met with my mentor, she challenged me with a concept she had heard at corporate leadership training during the early part of her career. The challenge was to be employees that met every expectation, "and then some", to be workers who gave one hundred percent, "and then some", to be people who put in deep thought, enough time, great effort, "and then some". As she is leading me in my walk with Christ, she issued me the same challenge in how I live out my faith on a daily basis with those around me. We started talking about what my life would look like if this principle really began to define my faith and life.
Today,
What if you forgave that person who wronged you...and then some?
What if you chose to meet the needs of your co-worker...and then some?
What if you chose to serve your neighbor this afternoon...and then some?
What if you decided to give your weekly tithes...and then some?
What if you sought to encourage your husband tonight...and then some?
Praying that we would be women who would have the attitude that is the same as that of Christ Jesus, who humbled himself and chose to serve us...and then some.
