Someone told me just the other day, “For a minister, you’re not scary.” I answered, “Good, I prefer funny and good looking.” They didn’t laugh. . . and the discussion turned more serious, so I listened, and then I shared Jesus.
While traveling and speaking, over and over again, I hear this message: “I know I am supposed to do more, but I don’t think I can.” Or this: “I want to do more, but I’m scared.” My all time favorite is: “How do you know if you are called to do. . .?”
Here is the truth - the answer I always give - the answer straight from Scripture: Yes, you are supposed to do more. Yes, you are called. If you have ever read the Bible, been in a Sunday School class, listened to a sermon, or sung a song about Jesus, then you have heard Jesus calling you to do something, and you will never be satisfied doing nothing or less than you do now. I can promise you with all assuredness, “That still small voice in your heart that is leading you to help, to serve, to go, to do more is not from Satan.”
So why are you sitting there? It’s time to make a difference in the world.
Blessings,
