It’s a typical household occurrence; a wife politely asks her husband to do chores around the house. Perhaps she wants him to do errands in town; asking escalates into nagging. The lady of the house resorts to posting a honey-do list to restore peace.

As lady of this house, I use a Pammy-do list. I begin my busy morning routine at my personal computer. I jot down a list of things that I need to do during that day and keep it clearly in sight. At the break of dawn, I’m eager and easy on myself. Later, I frequently begin to feel like I’m not accomplishing all that I should.

I get a nagging conscience.

Needing to restore tranquility, I make a mental note of items I’ve checked off as done.

I must never forget that Jesus always did what mattered most. He went about each day doing good.

“So Peter opened his mouth and said: ‘Truly I understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. As for the word that he sent to Israel, preaching good news of peace through Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all), you yourselves know what happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John proclaimed: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him (Acts 10:34-38 ESV)."

‘LORD, I need your anointing, guidance and power.’
