Thoroughness is carrying out each task in preparation for God’s personal inspection and approval. To be thorough requires that we put our whole soul into the work we do. This includes concentrating with the mind, directing the emotions, and using the will to do a complete and detailed job with excellence and consistency.
A job is never really done right until it is done right.
Attention to detail is the difference between mediocrity and excellence in the work we do.
Do a job with thy might as if you will never have another chance to do it right
Working harder when the boss is watching is convicting evidence that you are a manpleaser rather than genuine pleaser.
“People forget how fast you did a job – but they remember how well you did it” – Howard W.Newton
The American Alligator prepares a nesting spot that is not too high and not too low, not too wet and not too dry, not too hot and not too cold. Its nest is perfect in every respect.
When God thoroughly searches our heart, He will reveal to us the hidden areas of sin and uncleanness.
We also has to be aware of thorough cleansing of our hearts and surroundings.
Outward Cleanliness – When through cleaning is not maintained, clutter and dirt accumulate.
Personal Evaluation
How thorough we are?
* Are you committed to thoroughness in all you do?
* Are you impressed with your thoroughness in your hygiene: Brushing teeth, shower, washing hands, etc?
* Do you picture your jobs will be inspected and monitored?
* Do you thoroughly examine your life before taking communion?
* Do you clean around items and also under them?
* When you paint, do you make sure there is adequate preparation, including drop cloths to protect floors and carpets?
* Do you complete all the necessary details of a job, or do you leave things for others to do, such as clean up?
