Everything is kung fu!
The psalmist writes, "Praise the Lord! Praise, O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord! Blessed be the name of the Lord From this time forth and forevermore! From the rising of the sun to its going down The Lord's name is to be praised." Psalms 113:1-3
I recently watched a movie scene where a guy who owned a pizza shop asked a young sensei to train him in kung fu. During the training, the sensei told him, "Everything is kung fu." Throughout the day, as the man made pizzas, he began to incorporate everyday movements into the art of kung fu. Truly, everything became kung fu.
In a similar way, the Holy Spirit spoke to me in His small voice, revealing a profound truth: Everything is Jesus. Just as the psalmist urges us to praise the Lord from sunrise to sunset, may we weave Jesus into every moment of our lives.
Is Jesus everything to you? Is He present in your workday, your conversations, your first thoughts in the morning, and your final moments before sleep? Let every aspect of our lives be an act of praise to Him. May our hearts echo Jesus' prayer: "Father, not my will, but Yours be done." Today and every day, let our lives be a living praise to Him!
To Know Jesus. To Live on Mission.
