Bracelets and pumper stickers brandish the slogan WWJD: What Would Jesus Do? While it is a great question, Chris Tiegreen in Worship the King suggest we could be asking a more pertinent question: WIJD – What Is Jesus Doing? This reframed twist puts in a sense of Jesus as present with us and active through us—NOW.
Yes, Jesus’ life gives us an example to follow; we can ask “What would Jesus do?” in any situation and try to do likewise. But more than just an example, He lives within us. Inhabits us. Empowers us. Gives us directions, in real time.
God is at work. Can we see it? Do we understand it? Are we, the pots of clay in our Potter’s hands, cooperating so that He can also put us to work in the places He is already moving?
After the melting, refining, molding, and shaping, may we grasp and get involved in whatever Jesus is doing today.

Thank you, Diane! May I continually see what my Father is doing so I can do likewise.
