 Why do we grumble and complain when we see God give others what we don’t think they deserve, or opportunities He hasn’t given us? After all, we deserve those things!
But do we really? Do we really want what we deserve? Everything we have is God’s mercy. Every opportunity is His grace. Every chance we have to serve in ministry is more than we justly deserve. When we lobby leadership for perceived positions of power and think we have a right to fight for what we really deserve, we forget about what we actually deserve. None of us can truly and genuinely serve apart from Jesus. Our resume, pedigree, or experience is never the reason we receive any opportunity to serve. Only with humility can we realize that ministry isn’t about us. Ministry looks like coming after Jesus, denying ourselves, taking up His cross, and following Him in humble, self-sacrificial, others-centered service. Comments are closed.
