We who are in the household of faith are all a part of a Royal priesthood. It is Christ who calls us into salvation by his name. It is Christ Jesus who appoints us to our place and service in the body of Christ. It is the Holy Spirit who confirms and equips us to function in the role we have been assigned in the body of Christ not man. As you seek out your purpose in Christ you will also be looking for what role he has placed you in the body. No placement in the body is more honorable than another. Various placements are valued more than others by some religious people, but a body not fit together correctly by the Lord is dysfunctional and will not be able to complete its mission or mandate. Find out what role you have been assigned and learn to function in that calling/assignment. This will be a place of joy and contentment as you are refined and matured. Do not let people and their agendas move you out of the place the Holy Spirit anointed you for. If you allow this wrongful assignment, you will not fulfill your destiny. You will not be fully comfortable carrying a mantel you were not designed and equipped to carry. Each Mantel/Calling/Ministry of service has its own weight and responsibility.
