While staying at our house for a while, my 5 year old little brother Drenard began asking, Whatcha doinKuya? over and over. Whether I was working at my computer, putting on my shoes to go outside, sitting down to read, or helping in the kitchen, he sidled up to me and asked what I was doing. After answering him a few dozen times with, Paying bills, Going to the store, Reading the paper, Helping Mama, I came to the conclusion that he was asking a key question. Answering to a curious little boy about everything we do is one thing, but answering to God about our actions is infinitely more important. Would it be helpful to think of God coming alongside us at any time to ask, What are you doing? Imagine how often our answers would seem meaningless or empty . Im spending the entire evening watching TV. Im eating more food than I should. Im going another day without talking to You. The list could go on - to our embarrassment. We are told to use our time carefully, with Gods glory in sight (1Cor. 10:31; Col. 3:23). Paul said, Be very careful, then, how you live (Eph. 5:15). So its a good question. God wants to know: Whatcha doin?
