3 P-Word Jobs

Daily writing prompt
What jobs have you had?

I’ve had (and continue to have) 3 P-Word jobs:

1. Preemptive obedience: That job is to reject the option of disobedience even before I know what God is going to prompt me to do. It is to live by this declaration: “Jesus, I’ll do whatever you say today.”

    2. Proactive repentance: This job is about training to be effective at stopping my wrongful thoughts, feelings, desires, words, and actions without waiting for consequences to force me to.

    3. Putting away prejudice: This job requires me to never look down on anyone by thinking I am in some way superior to them. It’s a job that all humans need to apply themselves to daily. The Holy Spirit has taken me on a long journey of dealing with my prejudice and it continues to this day. To see where I chronical much of that journey, search for: Off the RACE Track book.

    Minds that embrace great humility think alike. Dare to be the faithful Christ-follower who disagrees with the crowd.

    Jesus Christ is real, alive, present, powerful, and wants to live and work in and through your life moment by moment. Make it your job to let Him.

    About Steve Simms

    I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
