A Clipping from Sunday's message. 1 Kings 19:1-4 & 8-15
God has a mission for Elijah that he completed admirably, but in the process, Elijah lost sight of something — his relationship with the Divine. So, God uses this moment to reorient Elijah’s perspective, reminding him that doing God’s work is as empty as doing anything else, if we do not, as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin puts it, “sacramentalize” every moment as belonging to God. It doesn’t matter whether we’re leading a Bible study or washing the dishes.
It’s all about God, not about us.
