Ministering in Faith

He put you where He put you because He wanted to put you there. All of us have to stay put where He puts us until He’s ready to move us. Everybody’s got their burden, just in different areas. Your ministry does matter to God. It is a significant part of the kingdom. What matters is not what anybody else thinks. What matters is, Am I pleasing to God? Can I stand before Him and have Him say, `Well done, thou good and faithful servant. You were believing when you didn’t see it. You were obeying when you didn’t understand it, giving when you didn’t have it, and persevering when you didn’t feel like it and thanking before you got it, and trusting when you didn’t get it.” These all receive their confirmation. That’s the real question. Is my ministry being performed in faith?
