Today I went to a restaurant above my house and pick up lunch. Being so close we just made a call-in order. Once I got there all of my order was not ready. The young lady behind the counter quickly and effectively made sure that my order was correct. I began to think her for her service. She stopped me and I am just doing my job. It is my pleasure to serve you.
This struck my heart. When studying, preaching, teaching, and simple witnessing I should just simply should have pleasure in my service for Him. All that I can do or would desire to to should just simply doing my job. It is my responsibility to carry out everything that my Heavenly Father requires me to do.
Job in this since is not making light of my calling. Our calling of God is our profession. Our job is to live up to the calling of God on our lives. My job is daily and without vacation, time-off, sick days, overtime, and so on. I do not have to be effective just faithful and humble. I do not have to have a dynamic personality, for I have a dynamic Gospel.
Of all I want to do in my life, and the list is large. When its all said and done I want to be able while kicking up gold dust, simply say......I was just doing my job.
