![]() SERVICE AND SIGNIFICANCE You are going to give your life to something. What will it be - a career, sport, a hobby, fame, wealth? None of these will have lasting significance. Service is the pathway to real significance. It is through ministry that we discover the meaning of our lives. The Bible says, As we serve together in God's family, our lives take on eternal importance. Paul said, "I want you to think about how all this makes you more significant, not less...because of what you are part of." God wants to use you to make a difference in His world. He wants to work through you. What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it. Not how long you lived, but how you lived. If you're not involved in any service or ministry, what excuse have you been using? Abraham was old, Jacob was insecure, Leah was unattractive, Joseph was abused, Moses stuttered, Gideon was poor, Samson was codependent, Rahab was immoral, David had an affair and all kinds of family problems, Elijah was suicidal, Jeremiah was depressed, Jonah was reluctant, Naomi was a widow, John the Baptist was eccentric to sat the least, Peter was impulsive and hot-tempered, Martha worried a lot, the Samaritan woman had severeal failed marriages, Zacchaues was unpopular, Thomas had doubts, Paul had poor health, and Timothy was timid. This quite a variety of misfits, but God used each of them in His service. He will use you too, if you stop making excuses. |
