Job or Vocation

Just a simple thought… to complete our day today…

Anna Sandberg discerns the difference between Job or Vocation:

If you are doing it just because no one else will,
it’s a job.
If you are doing it to serve others, it’s a vocation.
If you quit because somebody criticized you, it’s a job.
If you keep on serving, it’s a vocation.
If you’ll do it as long as it does not interfere with your activities, it’s a job.
If you are committed to staying with it even if it means letting go of other things, it’s a vocation.
If you quit because no one praised you or thanked you, it’s a job.
If you stay with it even though nobody recognized your efforts, it’s a vocation.
It’s hard to get excited about a job.
It’s almost impossible not to be excited about a vocation.
If our concern is success, it’s a job.
If our concern is faithfulness, it’s a vocation.
An average community is filled with people doing jobs.
A great and growing community is filled with people involved in vocation.
Where do we fit in? What about us?
If God calls you as a vocation, don’t treat it like a job.
If you have a job, give it up and find your vocation.
God doesn’t make us to feel stuck in a job.
