Mundane Tasks

If I am a housekeeper, I am busy from morning till night doing mundane tasks.

If I am a laborer in a factory, I hear the grinding sound of machines from dawn to dusk.

If I am an office worker, all I see the whole day are black ink on white papers.

If I am a house servant, what I do all day long is cleaning tables, sweeping floors and cooking meals.

How meaningless these things are!

How good it would be if I could go out and do the Lord’s work!

Many women consider being a wife who must take care of children and carry out endless household chores as highly uninteresting work.

How exciting if she be given freedom to go here and there to talk about spiritual things, things of the Lord.

Yet that is but the attraction of the flesh; it is NOT spiritual at all; it is wholly catering to self-delight.
