"Obscurity and competence- that is the life that is best worth living." Mark Twain
"There are lots of things we don't want to be, but it is what we desire to be that drives us." me
What are you competent at? Most people answer in terms of talent or abilities-- they can play guitar; do math in their head; repair a vacuum cleaner; replace the brakes on a car.
But, what about as a Christian? Are we competent Christians useful to the Lord's service? Or, are we consumed with folly having to be constantly chastised for our foolishness? Are we improving to become more effective? This is what I'm pressed with pursuing over the next few months. Not just to learn more, but to be more fruitful.
Psalm 85:12
12 Yes, the LORD will give what is good;
And our land will yield its increase.

Hey, is that really your quote?! Cool.
