People Let Us Live as You Are Called, Christians
People we are different places, different languages, different colors, the bottom line is we are people all born from our mothers. As a Christian, we all have a different calling in our life and we should honor God and live that calling. Right now this is my calling “Abounding Love Ministries Worldwide”. Two of our Outreachs are: “The Prayer Outreach” and “In God, We Will Trust”

1 Corinthians 7:20,24 (NKJV) 20 Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called. 24 Brethren, let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called. In 8 verses this is said twice. So I think it is important that we hear what is said here.
We all have a calling and we all have work to do in that calling, so let us get busy in that calling. There is the body of Christians which is made up of many parts. A Proton is found to be a very small living cell it would take a million of them to make an inch. So let us think of ourselves as a proton in the body. Not a finger or an ear or even a fingernail. We are a proton in the eyelash. So now let us look at the body how big it is and how small we are.
Now let us find our nitch in this life and do it. That is the part that is hard however every part is important in the body of Christ. We all have a specific job to do and it is the time that we ALL get busy doing it. We all are a very very very small part of a very Large body. I do believe it was designed that way so we will do our job and stop wishing.
I remember a pastor once saying when he got saved, he was asked to help stack chairs. For the church met in a school and had to get out and put away the chairs each Sunday. So he wanted to be the best there was at putting away chairs. That is what he did for a long long long time. Then he was given another job and it was an upgrade or was it. He started cleaning the restrooms. Do you get the picture? it took a long time for him to become the Pastor of a church. He is now running from what he was called to be though.
So, in summary, find out what you are called to be and be it. How do I do that one says, pray even fast and pray then listen then if you think you have found it get involved if not pray and listen some more when you find it get into it and do it. Remembering WE ALL HAVE A PART in the Kingdom of God, so live as you are called.
