Unnecessary

Making the Most Important Thing Necessary and Making God Necessary

I’ve heard it said that God never calls us to anything that makes Him unnecessary.

Many of us work hard to make things predictable. We like to be in control and we assess risk. We have professionals and departments that make it their business to reduce liability and exposure to the things that can hurt us.

Reducing risk sounds wise, so what does it mean for us to be called to something that requires God? I think it’s more than a big vision to change the world, it’s more than setting a BHAG. It’s more of a mindset, it’s a belief system.

From a Christian worldview, God is the one holding all things in place. Our heartbeat, our breath, and the talent and energy we have to be productive. He is also the source of all goodness and wisdom. Therefore, we seek his presence, his mind, and his hand in our work.

You don’t need stained glass windows to talk to God. You can talk to him about your work, your life, and your family anytime and anywhere. Furthermore, you don’t need an appointment. What you need is God. So make God necessary in all you do and see what happens.
