BOB Good morning! This is Bob Peden of Central, A United Methodist Community. Chris Lahr a pastor with Mission Year in Philadelphia Pennsylvania says, "No one does anything great!" He continues, "I am convinced that we do not need to do anything great, but simply do small things with great love. A radical following of Jesus is about the day-to-day grind of life—it is doing small things with great love. Then at some point in your life, you take a step back and you become amazed at all of the ‘greatness' that has occurred." As you prepare breakfast for yourself and your family this morning, do so with great love. As you drive to work or deliver children to their next event or run errands, drive with great love. And as you meet and interact with people throughout the day, just do so with great love. Loving God means loving people. If you will just do all that you would normally do, but with great love, you will look back one day and find greatness has happened in your life.
