I recently read a good definition of ministry by John A. Holt. As I reflect on his definition, I picture the faces of many people in our church who minister in Christ's name every week. Thank you for what you do.
"Ministry is giving when you feel like keeping, praying for others when you need to be prayed for, feeding others when your own soul is hungry, living truth before people even when you can't see results, hurting with other people even when your own hurt can't be spoken, keeping your word even when it is not convenient, it is being faithful when your flesh wants to run away."
And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.(Galatians 6:9) NKJV
