Make it Count

From time to time I tempted to walk away from the life-long commitment I have made to ministry. Life would be so much simpler! Imagine waking up, going to work, making money, coming home, and having fun figuring out how I could spend the money I made with my wife and kids! Wouldn’t selfish life be bliss? Not worrying about the hundreds of thousands in my community bound for hell.
But I always wake up to reality quickly. I was born for ministry. I am here to teach people the Word of God, introduce them to Jesus, and lead them into a devoted relationship with Him that will reproduce with those they come into contact with.
It would be so easy to walk away and to live for selfish ambition, but I know my heart would be in anguish because of walking away from the one thing God has called me to.
I have a calling that I cannot deny or reject. I have a mission that must be accomplished. And I will NEVER be satisfied unless I am doing the work of the One who sent me.
