Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. Let Your good Ruach lead me on level ground.” — Psalms 143:10 TLV

What is doing God’s will? When I first came to Christ, I believed you had to either work in a church or be apart of a Christian organization in order to do God’s will. With this mindset, I attended an Intervarsity Conference in Tampa, Fl. The speaker there was a missionary from Mexico. He told many good stories that were nothing short of inspirational. After the message, he invited everyone to attend a “Q and A” session. I attended and the first question that was asked of him was:

What profession should I enter in order to serve God best?”

This was it!! This was my question!! I sat back eagerly and awaited his answer. He addressed the crowd with this response:

It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter what profession you enter because you are a Christian first. You can be a Christian teacher, salesman, park ranger, or pastor. God can use you in any field.”

This answer was so simple yet it spoke truth to me. I thanked God that day for giving me my answer.

Today don’t think you have to change professions or go into a specific field in order to share the Gospel. Simply be who you are and let God shine through you! I am a Christian soccer coach. What are you?

Be blessed and know that you are loved by YeHoVaH through Messiah Yeshua and the Ruach ha-Kodesh lives within you.
