I would dare to say that across the world, most people aren’t doing the job they dreamed of when they were kids. Often insecurity, bitterness and resentment comes from feeling hopeless and out of place. God made all of us for a specific purpose and we all have a role in the Kingdom. We are all sons and daughters of the King. During the run up to Easter, my encouragement is to ask God what you are for, and then go do it. In the Vineyard one of our principles is that “everyone gets to play”, gifting needs to be used, and no matter how insignificant you may feel, you have gifting, most people just don’t know what that is.

man, how many times have I read some thought similar to yours here, describing the need to “do what you love to do”…and my heart soars for a fleeting moment…then comes gliding back down & lands on the flat, and seemingly practical plane of my existence..
And I think, well I guess doing what you love is for other folk…or young folk…or something like that….
