....you will surely be rewarded. Matthew 10:42 (NLT)
Are you available to God anytime?
Can he mess up your plands without you becoming resentful?
As a servant, you don't get to pick and choose when or where you will serve. Being a servant means giving up the right to control your schedule and allowing God to interrupt it whenever he needs to.
If you will remind yourself at the start of every day you are God's servant, interruptions won't frustrate you as much, because your agenda will be whatever God wants to bring into your life. Servants see interruptions as divine appointments for ministry and happy for the opportunity to practice serving.

Basically one way of many that you can serve.... remember now God does communicate in many ways, be open to him.

This was awesome thank you.
You can choose you your friends are BUT you cannot choose who God brings in your life to minister to That is Gods job.
Many churches do not care about the least of these and they do not have patience with those who have issues and handicaps because these people require more work and sacrifice than the average person and many times they are not able to give back in return.
the reward for hard work is more hard work and the reward for helping the poor is that they have more needs for your to help with.
Being inconvenienced is a part of life it helps to be flexible and see things from a godly perspective not a worldly impatient one.

I've been a Christian and I now no longer follow. I've known gobs of Christians. I've worked with atheists and Christians. Few Christians are genuine and caring. The vast majority one had best beware of as backstabbing, vindictive gossipers. I trust the atheists I know as my friends with my life. If an atheist is not outright evil, then he/she will have no reason to be treacherous. The atheists are the most honest and genuine people I know outside of just a couple of Christians. I have never yet met a Christian woman who hasn't eventually unjustly brought me meddlesome treachery.

Right now, I do not have any plans that can be messed up. I am available if God will open the door now.

Your additional statement works for me, so is this a question or a statement your making?
