Once something becomes habit, it’s easy to forget why we started doing it in the first place. The same goes for our spiritual habits. It’s important for individuals and churches to regularly reassess what they’re doing and why they’re doing it. This week Jesus helps us reset our definition of efficiency. Efficiency is defined as getting the maximum results with the minimum amount of wasted time, effort, or energy. The problem with that definition is that we tend to measure only the results we can see, which often leads us to conclude that something is a waste of our time or attention. Thankfully, Jesus shows us how what often seems inefficient is the most effective in his kingdom. Because he has done all things well, we can joyfully seize the opportunities to serve others that he gives us.
