Others involve themselves in ministry.
What’s the difference?
If you do it just because no one else will . . . it’s a job!
If you do it to serve God . . . it’s a ministry!
If you quit because someone criticized you . . . it’s a job!
If you kept on serving in spite of criticism . . . it’s a ministry!
If you’ll do it only so long as it doesn’t interfere with other things . . . it’s a job!
If you’re committed to staying with it, even when it means letting other things go . . . it’s a ministry!
If you quit because no one ever praised or thanked you . . . it’s a job!
If you stay even though no one notices your efforts . . . it’s a ministry!
If you do it because someone else said it needs to be done . . . it’s a job!
If you do it because you sensed God saying it needs to be done . . . it’s a ministry!
It’s hard to get excited about a job.
It’s almost impossible not to get excited about a ministry!
An average church is filled with people doing jobs!
A great and growing church is filled with people involved in ministry!
