Productivity
Commit your work to the Lord and your plans will be established (Proverbs 16:3).
Like many of you, I strive to be more productive. I love learning new tips and methods to help me manage my time. As I reflect on many of those, I realize that many tips, seminars, planners, and other tools really are what could be called “work-productivity” and not a “grace and faith-based productivity.”
What does “grace and faith-based productivity” look like? For me, it means ignoring all the noise and distractions in our world that compete for my time. It means starting and ending my day in God’s Word and prayer. I have been reminded that God doesn’t expect me to finish my to-do list before I die. If it’s on His list, he will complete it with or without me. And like Jesus, we must take time for solitude — rest and listen to God’s voice.
You can start and end your day with Bible studies and devotions that can be found under “The Word” tab at lwml.org.
