Are You Allowing Someone Else's Pain To Become Your Mission In Life?

Are you letting someone else's experience and pain become your mission in life?   Are you living in the "just because"?   Just because someone else is hurt, you are hurt.   Just because someone else did it, you are doing it.   Just because they can't get along with a person, neither can you?   UNDERSTAND, God did not call you to live in the just because.    We have to learn how to stop allowing another persons issues in life to become our mission in life.

Our mission is our vocation and calling.   We have to understand what it is that God is calling "us" to do and we have to line our lives up accordingly.    God did not call us to fall in sin because someone else is falling in sin.   He did not call us to hate someone because someone else hates them.   He did not call us out of darkness to be entangled over and over again.   He called us to be a follower of Christ  and to be His representative on the earth.  

Are you representing Him well?   Are you helping the people that are hurting by letting them know that God has a plan and just as He has forgiven us, we have to learn how to also forgive?   What are you doing with your "well of worship"?   Are you drawing from the well that is within you even when times are hard?  

We have to understand our mission in life.   We have to understand that God has called us to follow the example of Jesus and to lead others into a deeper relationship with Him.   We have to know that there are so many people that are looking for a ray of hope and we are the lights that God has set in place to help them find their way.   


SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 
James 1:19-21

19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
