In all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses. — 2 Corinthians 6:4

 Consider an 18-year-old looking for a summer job in the classified advertising. He is intrigued by an advertisement for a national wildlife and fish refuge because he enjoys the outdoors. 

Imagine that the 18-year-old is a Christian seeking to serve God in a significant way. His gaze is fixed on 2 Corinthians, chapter 6, at this time. The apostle Paul is there, describing the opportunity to serve the Lord, the highest calling of all. However, the job description is once more extremely open about some of the pressures associated with the position. Even while each reader is reminded by Paul's comments that serving the Lord is not like taking a long vacation, his experiences as an apostle were distinctive. It demands the highest level of dedication, care, and work.

Yes, serving Christ presents unique challenges and will demand sacrifice. But the difference is that we are not fighting this battle alone. For the honour of serving the Lord, there is no price too high! 

For the One who gave all for us, we can never give enough. Even though your labours are painful, don't lose heart in doing good; there will always be a harvest from the grain sown.
