If you have ever heard of the 80/20 rule, you’ll know it speaks of 20% of the people doing 80% of the work, whatever the project or enterprise. This often leads to the 20% getting burnt out and the 80% complaining they are not being served well enough. The 20% complain the 80% are spectators and the 20% complain that the 80% don’t do anything! Which group do you belong to?
When we think of God’s Kingdom there is only one 100% group, in which everyone does something, and we all work together for a common cause. If you are not yet volunteering, serving, or helping someone or something, now is the first day of the rest of your life.
1 Kings 8:61 says ‘…May your hearts be fully committed to the Lord our God…’. (NIV). When we all pull as a team, everything is possible in God’s growing Kingdom.
