It’s been over 500 years since the great artist, Michelangelo painted his famous frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. But did you know that when he was first asked to undertake the project, he didn’t want the job? He thought it was beneath him! And yet, this incredible work ended up being his biggest legacy and most famous work of his career.

Sometimes opportunities come to us disguised as projects that we’d rather not waste our time with. But in Jeremiah 29:11 God says this to us, “I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”  You might be facing an opportunity that, on the surface- is beneath you. But we must always remember that God may have a bigger and better plan.
