It's not about them

           Are we inflicted with laziness?  Or apathy?  Maybe we just don't get it.  Perhaps we are simply not aware of what we, yes, we, are being taught if  we have really been paying attention to biblical lessons.  Don't we often defer to others? 

"That's the pastor's job."

"That's why we have staff at church."

"That's for someone who's retired, they have time."

"That's for someone who doesn't have to work full time."

"I can do all that stuff later."

           Somehow many have bought into this thing that servitude, as relates to church and spiritual matters (helping others, growing others spiritually, raising others in Christ, doing the Christian thing consistently) is the responsibility of our church leaders.  We often fail to remember those words that we are told we will hear when we meet our maker: 

"well done, my good and faithful servant."

  Bottom Line Thought:  As you're going to church on Sundays, do you ever wonder why all those other people you see out there aren't going to church or if they're even Christians?  Do you ever do anything about that.....or do you leave that job for the servants at church?
