The theme of faithfulness...

I don't seem to be able to get away from the theme of faithfulness. Not that I'm trying! Remaining faithful in the small things has been a re-occuring theme in my life for months now.
My devotion this morning talked about having the mind of Christ even with the mundane things of life. I have known for a long time that God shows up in many of the distractions of life. I need to expand that view even more to include the everyday occurances of my life.
Today I will be in a high school teaching about relationships. One of the neat aspects of the teaching today will be the fact that our sexuality is a matter of value; and what we must do to protect that which is of value in our lives.
Later tonight I will be presenting to a school board about the program I help teach about relationships and sexuality. I pray for Gods presence to be evident to me and others there for the presentation. I pray for Gods presence to be evident in the class room this morning.
Lord, help me to be faithful in all I have to do today. Help me to focus my spirit to be aware of your presence within me and in the mundane circumstances of the day.
