Who's taking care of number two?

I always take a walk in a trail at the back of my workplace during my lunch break. I walk by this sign almost everyday but never find it interesting until today.

I always wonder, " Why am I doing this job while nobody seems to care? If my colleague hadn't asked me to answer the same question again and again, I would have more time to complete more tasks in my workplace. Why do I always have to correct clerical mistakes that my colleague made?"

I always find it hard to surrender all of my will and heart to God. I started to feel tired to complete tasks that anybody is perfectly competent to manage. I am willing to serve God in the fields that I enjoy, such as singing in worship team and organizing programs in fellowship. However, I will treat it as a "job" when I have to serve in the area I don't enjoy very much. (Ha...I can't mention it here or I will be scolded.)

God reminded me that both Number One and Number Two are important, as well as my favourite job and my least favourite job. Every little bit counts.

"Be willing to sacrifice your agenda for His greater purposes. What if Noah had told God, 'I don't do boats!' What if Joseph had not given his brothers and failed to protect them from the life-threatening famine? Or what if Jesus had refused to die on the cross? Surrender is the tipping point. When we make that choice, God can use us to do great things for Him."
