You know what's great about going the extra mile -- very little traffic.
-- George Mason basketball coach during 2006 NCAA finals

You can pretty much count on most people nowadays to put in the bare minimum amount of effort. Rarely do you see the "extra mile" the coach talks about...but Jesus always gave His very best for His Father. Why shouldn't we strive to do the same? If we are supposed to do all things for His purpose, we are sure doing a crappy job! Lord, help us to strive to do better. Guide us into a renewed passionate relationship with You!
