Skillful People

I am blessed to work with the finest people in any business. I work with folks that make the most demanding task seem effortless. I work with folks that make the extraordinary seem mundane. It's not often that you get the chance to work with a few folks that really know what they are doing, much less to work with a group as talented as the one I am working with. Of course it goes without saying that I am the worst of the lot.

It would behoove us all to watch people that really know what they are doing. I have learned lots by just watching really skillful people apply their trade. I have really learned when those really skilled people allowed me to try doing something while they instructed and corrected. Yeah, even GOD'S Word reminds us to pay attention to those who know what they are doing.

Today's word is Proverbs 22:29, ESV, which reads, "Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men."

Not that it is important whom we work for, kings or obscure men. What is important is that we do what we do diligently, as if for a king. Because, the truth is, we are doing what we do for THE KING. GOD has gifted us and allowed us to learn skills to better perform our duties. Let's us them for His glory.

Thank You, LORD, for allowing me the blessing of working with wonderfully, skilled people. It certainly makes the work day better.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
