An Ordinary Woman

I've been thinking about Pam Tebow today. I just love her. Not because she is someone extraordinary, amazing, or especially outstanding in any way, but because she is an ordinary wife and mom. She has become a well known name because many years ago she chose to give birth to her children and raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

I know a lot of women that fit that description. Not all of them are as famous. Most of them aren't. They go about their daily lives sinning, repenting, and calling upon the grace of God to make them into the woman that He desires them to be. They will never get national recognition for their tireless work to make a peaceful home and raise godly children. That is okay with them. None of them (and my guess is that includes Pam Tebow) are interested in our approval. They are looking to the One who set the universe in order. They are listening to hear Him say, "Well done, good and faithful servant."

Pam Tebow made a decision all those years ago that has brought her into the limelight today. I pray that she (and her family) will continue to make decisions that will bring glory to God. I pray the same thing for myself, my family and my friends. Life today may be repetitive, tedious and without recognition, but you never know where God will call you to serve next. You never know what He has prepared for you in your future. Press on where you are. Be faithful in the little things and seek His glory always.
