How to Make God’s Work Your Work

Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men” Mark 1:7 In the Bible, when Jesus called Simon and Andrew, he was showing them that there was something more valuable than catching and profiting from fish – people. Christ’s invitation to the brothers tapped into their previous passions and skills. Now though, they’d be using them to fulfill God’s purposes. Is there something that God is telling you is more valuable than catching and profiting from whatever you do for a daily living? What are the skills and passions in your life that God wants to use to build His kingdom? You may be an entrepreneur who can dream big visions of God’s work, or you may be a nurse whose tender care and thoroughness can be wonderful tools in God’s hands. All of us have passions and skills God can use to build His kingdom: plumbers and attorneys, salespeople and administrators, drivers and doctors. Each of us is a repository of experiences, talents, skills, gifts, motivations, and desires that God wants to use in the lives of people we touch each day. Will we let Him? What are your top 3 skills, and how would you describe your passion over the last few years? How might God tap into those skills and passion to use you to touch people?
