About This Quote
God’s extraordinary work is most often done by ordinary people in the seeming obscurity of a home and family. This idea is supported by the saying: “God works in great and mysterious ways, not always as we want them to.” The phrase "God's work" refers to the work that God does through those who are obedient to Him and who live as He directs. (See Matt. 7:21-27; Rom.
3:28; 1 Cor. 4:6).
