​John 17:4
[Jesus said] I glorified you on earth by finishing the work that you gave me to do.

Several months ago I gave a piece of my artwork to a local show where the proceeds from the sale could be sent directly to a charity. I assumed that had happened. Recently at a conference, a person came up to me saying she was thrilled to see me because she had been the one to purchase the artwork but she hadn't yet sent the check to the charity. On the spot, she wrote the check and put it in my hands for me to direct to the charity. She was genuinely excited to check off a task that had been burning a hole on her to-do list. We love it when we can cross something off the list of our responsibilities. The list grows longer and many things are on-going and not easily checked off. Jesus brought glory to God by finishing the work he was given. Our to-do list from the Lord is not long but it is never-ending: Love God - Love One Another.

Holy God, our work never ends but neither does your love. Amen.
