when the task is done

baptism 160Nehemiah 12:27-47

When they celebrated the dedication of the newly rebuilt wall in Jerusalem, all the leaders were there, and they formed two processions, each headed by a large choir for singing praises.  Instead of sitting around congratulating each other on their success, and bragging about their hard work, the leaders spent the day worshipping the LORD who had called them to that work. 

LORD, inspire us to magnify you as a response to our successes, because they all come from you.
