Ministry is...
Giving when you feel like keeping,
Praying for others when you need to be prayed for,
Living truth before people even when you can’t see results,
Hurting with other people even when your own hurt can’t be spoken,
Keeping your word even when it is not convenient.
Being faithful when your flesh wants to run away.
Leadership is not easy. Leading a ministry is not easy, it`s a calling.
Here’s what Paul the Apostle said:
Strength is for service, not status. Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves: “How can I help?” That’s exactly what Jesus did. God wants the combination of His steady constant calling and warm personal counsel in Christ to come to characterize us.” (The Message)
