Trivial Pursuits
A familiar Mother Goose rhyme goes:
PUSSY CAT, PUSSY CAT, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
I'vE BEEN TO LONDON TO VISIT THE QUEEN.
PUSSY CAT, PUSSY CAT, WHAT DID YOU THERE?
I FRIGHTENED A LITTLE MOUSE UNDER THE CHAIR.
Like that cat, Christians sometimes settle for petty involvements, trivial pursuits-chasing mice-when we have the opportunity to spend time with royalty, with the King! Instead of remaining content with minimum daily requirements, we can deepen our relationship with God and grow into maturity.
