Sadly, too many get so focused on becoming successful, they miss (and often regret) the one thing that Jesus wants from us all - to be faithful? As I pondered this, I wondered - wouldn't we like to hear Him say to us some day; "Well done my good and faithful Servant", and to see His smile?. For that is the bid idea that each of us should understand - that God calls us to be faithful, not successful.
I hope you too are joining us in wondering, what should we do? If you are not sure, consider starting with these questions. What if Jesus asked you . . . What should you do as a husband, father or friend? or . . . What should you do for your community, your church or your disciples? It comes down to this. If we as Christians are not using our abilities (the talents God gave us) to help others; we are not being faithful to Him. |
