CALLING, CONVENIENCE, CAREER?

CALLING, CONVENIENCE, CAREER?
"So dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen."(2 Pet. 1:10,NLT) Calling is a strong inner impulse toward a particular course of action, mostly divine. You don't manufacture it, but you discover and walk in it. "I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations."(Jer. 1:5,NLT) This is so clear, it would be difficult to miss it. In the same way, God has set each of us apart to fulfil our specific assignments. But two things that can distract us are convenience and career. What I mean by convenience is that, many of us choose to do only the things we enjoy or have pleasure in, other than the original things we have been called to do. Others too have been consumed by a chosen career, it has become difficult for them to respond to their original calling. Where do you fall? Have you identified your calling? Never forsake it! AB@TWD
