I know of many cases involving persons who reluctantly left a promising career path for, “ful time ministry,” because they thought it was the more God honoring thing to do. That if they abandoned what was most natural for them, a thing they were affirmed in by others, and that they genuinely enjoyed, all for the sake of something more, “spiritual,” that God would be extra pleased. That He would see their sacrifice as the more, “holy” option. Yet, biblically, that is not the case at all. Diverse expressions of our vocations are necessary and God honoring. Do we need persons sacrificing and embracing more complicated task, yes. Nonetheless, one should not succumb to that false value system. That wrongfully says, leave your nursing career or your medical program to become a Christian rapper or a minister, because it is the, “real work of God.” One should be free to serve as a pastor or a poet. Realizing both are serving neighbor, should be done to the best of your ability (with the help of God), and, as unto the, LORD. #ExtraNos #Reels #Lutheran #lutherantheology 🎥 @vividcortez
