Transcript
- 0:00I'm thinking today of Exodus 27-21.
- 0:04In the tent of meeting outside the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons
- 0:08shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the Lord.
- 0:11It shall be a perpetual statute throughout their generations for the sons of Israel.
- 0:18Here Aaron and his sons are given a job for life.
- 0:21This is what people mean when they say a calling.
- 0:25It's something you do for the duration.
- 0:27They were keep the outer house of God in order.
- 0:31It's a pretty cool job.
- 0:32In a way, it's a job that was created in their lifetime for their lifetime.
- 0:37As for me, I preach, I serve the body, I run games, I'm a dad, I talk to God and listen,
- 0:43at least I'm supposed to.
- 0:44I write and I'm director of the Southside Legislation.
- 0:47I podcast the services.
- 0:49I get the gospel out by any creative means I can.
- 0:53I am called to be a witness.
- 0:55I connect the body as God leads the course.
- 0:57I represent God in the church.
- 0:59I'm a pastor, director, GM, dad, husband, author, but most importantly, I'm a servant
- 1:04of Christ in all things I do.
- 1:06For this reason, I must learn to do them well, meaning effectively and efficiently.
- 1:11I think I'm drifting a little on efficiency at times.
- 1:14I trust God will get me there though.
- 1:16I must be willing.
- 1:18Lord, I repent, that is to say I repent, and I turn to you again today.
- 1:24I want to do all that you have given to me to do and to do it well.
- 1:30Won't you join me in looking for the calling on your life, the thing that God has uniquely
- 1:34equipped you to do, probably something you're passionate about?
- 1:39If you don't have one, then I would suggest turning to the Lord and saying, God, use me
- 1:43as you see fit, or as Isaiah said, here I am, Lord, send me.
