I woke up this morning and there were two house projects on my mind – things that I have not done, but should have been done a long time ago. I feel that God is reminding me about these things and is putting them on my priority list. It is in the will of God that I work on and complete these things.

Ultimately, the will of God is practical. The best example of this is the birth of Jesus.

Jesus came through a virgin and a humble man, born in a manger, without pomp or fanfare. This not only reveals the character of Christ – humility, but it was also practical. Imagine how easy it would have been for Herod to find Jesus, if He would have blazed into town with a mighty wind, in a cloud of fire, with the angels singing, the trumpets blowing, and the earth shaking. No, Jesus’ birth was practical.

Spend enough time with God to hear His voice and then you will know exactly how to manage life in a practical way. You may end up doing house projects that you don’t feel like doing, but your life will be better for it.
