Ministry
today was a really shagged day for me. not only did i not have enough sleep, wait...since when i ever had enough sleep? lol. in short..i was off form today la. had discipleship twice. one after briefing, one after debrief..
so those serving and u have discipleship..dont complain. i had it TWICE in 2 hrs! basically i wasnt aware and accountable to e ppl around me..instead serving has become a routine to me. i started doing my own things..not looking at how God would do things, etc..
so for those of u serving..if all e time all you think about is what ure supposed to do and what ure supposed to do..then it defeats the purpose! really. instead of serving God, you are now serving man. it is true..we serve the people in the house of God..but ultimately its still about serving God!
you can be soo busy..filling seats..securing stations..singing, playing the instrument..etc..and at the same time..you lose your focus on God and you start doing the routine, instead of really flowing with God.
you're just doing your 'JOB'. NO people! ministry is more than a job! ministry is more than a list of dos and donts! ministry is about God! ministry is WORSHIP expressed through service. so what if people upset you? SO WHAT!
are you there for people? or are you there for God? are other people's attitudes more important than your very own attitude towards God? Think for yourself.
im really thankful to God for these kind of leaders He's placed in my life. im thankful that even when there are times i make mistakes and i dont even know..that there are people out there who are willing to confront my mistakes, so that i can become a better person..more like God.
ive learned alot today. what it really means to be a servant of all. yet we are not our own. we dont work alone. the entire body of christ functions as one. when its time to serve, you serve. when its time to fellowship, you fellowship. when its time to worship, you worship. dont just do your own things..flow with God!
