When God calls you (1)

Give yourselves  fully to the work of the Lord.. 1corinthians 15:58

A career is something you choose;a calling is something you receive. A career is something you do for yourself ;a calling is something you do for God. A career Promise status, money, and power, a calling generally promises difficulty, suffering, and the opportunity to be use by God. A career can be disrupted by any number of Events, but God enables you to fufil your calling even in the most difficult circumstances. For some people in scripture obeying the call of God meant living in slavery, being captured and sent into exile, or being put to death. Their career trajectories didn't look promising, yet they fufilled their calling in extraordinary ways. Chuck colson had one of the highest profile careers in america. He had access to power in the nixon white house, yet he landed in prison. His career was over, but his calling was just beginning. He was called to reach others just like himself. He reflect :'the real legacy of my life was my biggest failure - that I was an ex-convict. My great humilation-being sent to prison - was the beginning of God greatest use in my life;He choose the one experience in which I couldn't use for His glory. 'in the providence of God, the end of your career can be the beginning of your calling. So whatever God has called you to do. The Bible says, Give yourselves fully to the work... Because you, know that you labour in the Lord is not in vain.
