Devotional Thoughts
Divine Partnership
Jobe 5:17—My Father worketh
hitherto, and I work.
Jesus knew a relationship with
God that was personal and power
ful. His life was joined with the
purposes of His Father in a Di
vine Partnership. And He in
vites us to share in that Partner
ship.
For His part in this Divine Part
nership God has given us material
resources that are limitless in ex
tent and value, amazing mental
powers to make use of these re
sources, and a spiritual nature de
signed to keep us aware of and in
touch with the Eternal Source of
all.
For our part in this Partnership
God desires two responses. In
the first place. He expects us to
be something. That is. He wants
our lives to reflect something of
the “image of God” with which He
has endowed us. He has a right
to expect us “to do justly, to love
mercy, and to walk humbly with
our God.”
And He expects us to do some
thing. We are given hands and
minds and will to be used to make
a productive contribution to the
welfare of mankind. The nature
of the job itself is not so important
—our attitude towards it makes a
significant difference. God would
have each of us feel we are work
ing with Him as we engage in
whatever location we have chosen.
Divine Partnership! “My Fath
er worketh hitherto, and I work.”
