Have you ever done something and wondered "Is it even worth it?" or even want to quit?
I'm going to step out of my comfort zone and be transparent with you today. I'm a church pianist. I LOVE being the pianist at my church, it's a blessing in several different ways, and I just enjoy myself doing it. I love piano. But, I'll be honest and say, sometimes I don't love it so much and I don't necessarily "enjoy" it {Gasp!! Yes, I really just said that} sometimes I find myself thinking "Is it even worth it?" (I know, it's terrible of me. Go ahead and judge ;)
When this happens there is something I need to remember. And that is...Why am I doing it? I'm not doing it for people or praise, I'm doing it for The Lord. I'm doing it to honor and glorify Him. Not others. I'm doing it because HE put me here to do it. I'm human, there will be times I don't do everything perfect, there will be times I can't please everyone and do things exactly as they'd like it. And that's ok. What's important is that I'm doing my best.
So when I start to get upset because I feel inadequate, or I get overwhelmed because I can't do everything just PERFECT or make *Everyone* happy...I need to step back and remember, I'm doing this for the Lord. I truly believe that this is what the Lord wants me to do. He has called me to do this, and I'm going to do it to the best of my ability.
Have you ever felt discouraged in the ministry or something else that you do? Don't quit!! Just keep trucking on for the Lord!

"And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."
Ecclesiastes 9:10
"Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might..."
Colossians 3:23
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men."
