What are your responsibilities in life?
Think about yours right now.
Are you a mom? Responsible for the livelihood of your children?
Are you a husband? Responsible for the treatment of your spouse?
Are you a student? Responsible for your schoolwork and building lasting relationships?
Are you an employer? Responsible for the well-being of your employees?
Are you an employee? Responsible for carrying out the mission of your company?
What are your responsibilities?
We all have them… and the importance of each is relative.
How do you approach your responsibilities each day?
Are they a burden? Are they heavy? Are they arduous?
If this is your relationship to what it is you are responsible for, your spirit and vigor for life itself will slowly grind away… I’m sure of that.
Today, what would it look like to shift your mindset?
What if we started carrying our responsibilities differently?
What if instead of a burden you saw your responsibilities as opportunities? Let me show you…
Hey you - mom… I know your life is pandemonium and its hard to feel like you have any time to yourself… but you are sowing important seeds into your children. You are teaching them how to function in life, you are instilling inside them values that will guide their future. Your voice will ring in their heads forever… this is a great responsibility. Don’t overlook it.
Hey you - employee… I know your work feels monotonous and your pay too little… but how you execute your daily duties says everything about your character! You are building a heart of trustworthiness for those in authority over you as well as the people that work next to you. This is a great responsibility. Don’t overlook it.
Your responsibilities are more important than you know…
Luke 16:10 says this, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much”
How you handle your current responsibilities will make way for your future responsibilities…
And you have great responsibilities in front of you and ahead of you!
Each of your responsibilities are an opportunity for you to actuate your true character.
Attack it with positivity!
Strive to do it with excellence!
Give it your best, even if its not perfect!
