What Am I Doing?

So as some of you know my youth group hosted Coastal Rise this fall in concert. However, some of you may have not known that I was actually the one who contacted Coastal Rise and got the process started. Anyways the concert day comes and near the end of the concert my friend came up to me and mentioned how crazy it is that the main singer is only eighteen.

My first thought was "You got to be kidding me!?" but then my next thought was "What am I doing!?"

I mean like he is only eighteen and is performing and singing before many people. He is out there singing and spreading the love of God. And me, what am I doing? In what ways am I doing great things for God?

I guess the place to start is do we care about doing what God has called us to do? Are you willing to do whatever God calls you to do? If we aren't willing to do what God calls us to do and are only willing to follow our own selfish plans and desires we won't get very far and we won't be doing great things for Him. If we are following our own desires God is probably not going to have any part in that desire.

So in reality my question would be better phrased as is God radiating from me? Is Christ's love flowing through and from me to others around? If I am showing Christ's love to others that would be pretty much the same as being the leader of a christian band expressing God's love to the people they play for.

See in when it comes down to it, it doesn't matter how famous we are or how many people we are speaking to, but if we are doing what God desires for us to be doing. If we are always looking at ourselves and how we could do better or do greater things we won't be allowing God to work in His special and perfect ways through us. Yes we should be always wanting to be doing greater things for God, but we must not forget to allow God to do His profound work through us. Just like I talked about in post "God Is Great" We don't have to be great because our God is.
