Restoring Dominion – Hit the Mark — 2 Comments

  1. Great article! Your article is definitely thought-provoking. We all should take the time to determine what dominion means to us, and how we can use that meaning to finish the work that Jesus left for us to do. By the way, Jesus didn't need us to finish the work; He could have finish the work the day of His resurrection. Instead, He looked down through the ages of time and saw you and me, and said something like this, "I want them to finish the work. I want them to have a small experience(s) of true dominion or stewardship". As an Office Manager, I have to control what goes on in the office at all time, even when I'm not there. I have to control the inanimate items in the office, such as work schedules and office supplies, all while thinking about each individual that works in the office. Instead of flexing my control and responsibilities as manager, I try to lead the office in a Team-work environment, where each person in the office is part of the overall success and productivity of the office. Finally, the most exciting part of my job is teaching, through coaching, each individual how to perform their job more effectively. I've share my short job description with you, because through my secular job God has allowed me to see a "small" glimpse of what dominion is like; the Full task that Jesus did on earth, and continues to do for the entire universe on a daily-basis. How we choose to display our own meaning of dominion in action with our families, in our churches, and in our secular job, is totally up to us. But I choose to follow Jesus' example and be a loving, caring co-steward with Him.
