Think about this:
“G.K. Chesterton said that there is no such thing as a boring subject. There are only bored persons. Everything in God’s creation is intrinsically interesting, though we are so dull-minded that we often miss the wonder of it all.” - World Magazine, June 17, 2006, page 9.
What is the boring class for you? Geometry? Geology? Geography? If you really get Chesterton’s point, every subject will be transformed from wearisome to worship. This is what it means to live in a God-centered way. Because every subject is God’s subject, “everything in God’s creation is interesting.”
Dull-minded or God-minded: the choice is yours.

One Response to “Bored?”
Excellent quote and comments. Even though I don\’t formally attend school any more, there are certain things I don\’t like to do. But even in this, I can be God-focused and therefore learn and find my tasks interesting because God has ordained them. I would encourage all of the youth at Sovereign Grace Church to do all your school for the glory of God and as an act of worship unto Him. By His grace you can be God minded, not dull minded.
