There was a time when I really wanted to be a politician. Because of God’s call, ultimately, I became a pastor. I am a churchman at heart. I love the local church. As a side note, I think I would be a terrible politician.
There are many opinions floating around social media about how and when the economy should reopen. I have opinions. I always have opinions. I think they are the right opinions, otherwise I would change them (read joke).
Opening the economy is not my lane. This is the lane of the doctors, scientists, administration, and politicians. They have way more information, experts, and resources then I do to make the right decision.
I have opinions, but I am choosing to stay in my lane.
My lane is preaching.
My lane is praying.
My lane is encouraging.
My lane is pointing people toward Jesus.
My lane is pastoring.
What is your lane?
How can God best use you, your position, and gifts to make a difference during this pandemic?
When we switch lanes, what ends up happening is too many people are in one lane and not enough people are in the other lanes. There are plenty of people in the politics lane right now. It seems as though everyone is a politician at heart right now.
Maybe your lane is compassion, teaching, serving, or leadership? The truth is, we need more people in those lanes. We need more people using their gifts and abilities to make a difference, bring light, and serve others.
Love your lane, drive well, and we will arrive at the right destination together.
