“For we are His workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has prepared that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10 Darby translation
The Lord seeks those who are sensitive and responsive to His presence, that they might be prepared and available to Him for whatever purpose that He might have. Therefore, He “works” within us to accomplish His higher purposes through us. These “good works” are the circumstances that He uses to accomplish this.
These “good works” may not appear as being “good,” but rather, may be seemingly terrible things that are being used to produce a good result. Therefore, our part is to recognize the Lords presence and cooperate with Him in whatever He may desire to do.
We may faithfully attend Church and feel spiritually satisfied; but the Lord desires something beyond this. Whenever He stirs us to bring about changes within us, we should respond by “focusing” our attention toward His presence, and that which He seeks to accomplish.
