How Much To Give? (Church's ministry and service)

How much are you willing to give or pledge to God in your ministry? An example, the praise and worship team. If your a guitarist, ur skills are only 3 out of 10, is that enough to serve God? A drummer, skill ranging at 5 out of 10, pianist, maybe an 8 out of 10. Another example, a volunteer who pledges his skills or service to do God's work. Just because he is a volunteer, he can just simply do his work and then cash out?

Some Christian thinks that, "If i do my ministry or service in church with all my heart, God will appreciate and loves it." That is true, God looks at our heart. But for one very important thing which many christians has missed out IS, "OUR GOD IS AN EXELLENT GOD." He is perfect in everything. I know that ministering or doing his work with a sincere heart is good, BUT, it is not good enough. OUR GOD IS A PERFECT GOD. If your skills are only around 3 out of 10, he will accept it, BUT, does it means that he is satisfied already?

Our God loves us so much, that he gives us room and time to improve ourselves. His love and grace is non comparable to our parents, relatives nor friends on earth. He gives you the chance to improve and it does not means that with a skill of only a three pointer and plus your sincere heart will make it 10. NO!!! It would not.

If you think that your a volunteer worker for God and it is good enough for you to "volunteer" yourself into his ministry and executing His works unprofessionally PLUS a sincere heart will make God satisfied of you? COME ON PEOPLE, be more mature. Wake up. You are all volunteering to do HIS work, not helping your neighbors to paint their walls, move the furnitures or to feed their pets while they are on vacation, COME ON, this is GOD'S WORK, HIS MINISTRY.

If your skills or ministry work is only 3 out of 10, why can't we make it 8 or 10 out of 10. And those who really reached top level which is 10 out of 10, why not make it 11, 12, 13 and more far out of 10? OUR GOD IS AN EXCELLENT GOD as i previously said. Why do i have to repeat this phrase many times? It is because, I DON"T THINK YOU KNOW IT.

This things happens because of our own attitudes. Admit it everyone of you who are reading this. If your skills and ministry works are only 2 or 3 out of 10, YOU ARE NOT GOOD. Admit that. Be humble. Say you are willing to improve. Not finding some stupid reasons that our relationship with God and the Holy spirit is far away. NO NO NO, STOP THIS!!!. Admit that you are not good enough. Improve yourself to serve HIM. Some might give excuses that the time has not arrived yet. This is totally NOT TRUE AND UNACCEPTABLE. So, tell me, when is THAT TIME. TELL ME, ANYONE WHO KNOWS IT, DROP A REPLY IN THE COMMENT BOX. No one knows when the second time Christ will come. Do you want to wait for Judgment day to come then you polish up all your skills on that day? Do you want to wait until your church suddenly pops up an extra 100 people? BY THAT TIME, IT IS WAY TOO LATE. EVEN IF YOU HAVE FAITH THAT BRINGS EXPLOSIVE POWER BECOMES DEAD BECAUSE NO EARLY ACTIONS HAS BEEN TAKEN AND ONLY STUPID CRAPS AND REASONS.

Let us wake up fellow brothers and sisters. It is time for you to be humble and think rationally. We must give out our 100% for God. An 8 or 9 out of 10 is not good enough either. For those who are willing to humble yourself and wanting to give out their 100% or more to God in his ministry, please do a prayer for yourself. Set a target for yourself to help you achieve your goal and not plucking any dreams from the air.

This is my goal. My guitar skills are only 3 out of 10, vocal = 1, intepretion skills = 1, leadership = 3 and other minister = 1. I will improve myself from 3 to 7 and 1 to 5 this year and the following year i will make them 8 to 10 out of full. And after 3 years i want to exceed the number 10. If you are like me, write down a goal for yourself in the comment box or on a piece of paper and always know that, an example from The gospel of Mark, Chapter 8, verse 35 said, whoever who would save his life would lose it, BUT whoever who sacrifies his life for Christ and the gospel will save it.

Applying the following verse into our ministry, for those who are only hiding from the truth and keeping themselves inside their comfort zone will never experienced what God has prepared for us. BUT for those who are willing give and pledge their 100% or more to God will receive and experience what God is about to prepare for YOU. AMEN
