IT'S NOT MY JOB

Yesterday, I realised that I felt light and happy (I'm still feeling that way). I still have bills to pay, work to do, clothes to wash, calls to make and receive, friends to ping (add your own). I have relatives with health challenges; I have to deal with funny attitudes and ‪#‎Nonsense‬ from colleagues and clients.

However, I realised that I am not the General Manager of the whole world. It's not my job to make everyone put up sensible Facebook updates. It's not my job to m...ake every adulterer stay faithful to their spouses. It is NOT my job to make sinners repent. It is not my job to make every man love his wife. It is not my job to make every woman submit to her husband. It is my job to shine the light (with my words and deeds) in a dark and perverse word. I am a light to my generation. I have influence but God has the authority.

I have given up my NEED to be right...I have given up my NEED to control everything and everyone to adopt MY way for every challenge...So help me God.

Meanwhile, God IS on Facebook; He reaches out through those of us that will yield ourselves to Him.

Have a blessed and productive day.
