Have you ever felt like you live an invisible life that doesn’t amount to much or matter to all that many people? Maybe you’re a bank teller or a math teacher or a financial advisor or a stay-at-home mom and you feel like you do the same old thing everyday and no one sees or cares. The cameras are turned on the quarterbacks and senators, the movers and the shakers while you just quietly live your little ‘ole life in the shadows, right? Well, I know it feels that way, but the truth is, your life (whoever you are) matters immensely to the One who made you and is watching every move you make. One time in Jesus’ life, the heavens burst open and the voice of Almighty God spoke for everyone to hear, saying, “This is my Son and He makes me so happy!” I know what you’re thinking... “Yeah, but Jesus did tons of miracles and taught so many amazing things.” Yes, that’s true, but when God the Father spoke on that day of how pumped He was about Jesus, it was before Jesus had done even one miraculous thing. All Jesus had done up that point was quietly live a simple and sweet, unknown life in a tiny little hick town in the middle of nowhere for three decades. I love Jesus because He pleased God when He was nobody from nowhere, and now He gives me the power to please God in my plain little life too.
