Chosen to serve

“Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭6:3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

If you have an important job to do, call on a man/woman of God. I know this first hand. I love serving with my fellow believers. There are none more dedicated than those who truly follow Jesus. They are designed to serve. They can lead and be led. They will sacrifice themselves to complete a task and will leave no stone unturned in searching for perfection. They are filled with a keen spirit and their wisdom is so valuable in all they do.

We have an obligation to work hard for the Lord. I don’t care what job you hold. Everything we do as a Christ follower is for the Lord. Every job, every volunteer opportunity, EVERYTHING is for the kingdom of the God. It is not always easy because many places of employment are not godly places. They are filled with those who fight against the faithful. But, we were placed in our jobs by the Lord Almighty and we need to persevere and continue to serve through ridicule, turmoil and pain.

Praise God for the hardworking men and women of the Lord.
