Job or Ministry?

I came across the following comparison the other day and felt to share it:

• If you are doing it because no one else will, it's a job. If you are doing it to serve the Lord, it's a ministry.
• If you are doing it just well enough to get by, it's a job. If you are doing it to the best of your ability, it's a ministry.
• If you will do it only so long as it doesn't interfere with other activities, it's a job. If you are committed to staying with it, even when it means letting go of other things, it's a ministry.
• If you quit because no one praised you or thanked you, it was a job. If you stay with it even when no one seems to notice, it's a ministry.
• If you do it because someone else said it needs to be done, it's a job. If you do it because you are convinced it needs to be done, it's a ministry.
• It is hard to get excited about a job. It is almost impossible not to get excited about a ministry.
• People may say, "Well done," when you do your job. The Lord will say, "Well done," when you complete your ministry.
• An average church is filled with people doing jobs. A great church is filled with people involved in ministry.

I beleive Solid Rock Worship Center is a great church where many are actively involved in ministry. You must examine yourself, though, and answer for yourself.

• 1 Corinthians 12:12 (KJV) - For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

There is a ministry for everyone in the church. Especially since ministry DOESN'T just mean what happens behind a pulpit.

What can you be a part of?

Where can you become actively involved?

Who can you help?
