We're doing more than occupying ourselves in tasks and to do items.
Starting off to accomplish something for God and realizing along the way that it's about Him! We get to be mentioned in His story!

Philippians 3: 4b-11 & Ephesians 1:19-21
     1. Rest in His Power
     2. Share in His Sufferings (we are disadvantaged because of our privilege)
     3. Like Him in His Death (Come & Follow - be a part of what He's doing to building His church). Have We No Rights? Mable Williamson

You are going to participate in His story.
