I Am Just …

“What then is Apollos? What is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, and each has the role the Lord has given. I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.”
 
We each have a job to do many times we can think that the job that we have is not important by saying “I am just…” or “I just do …” since what we do does not include a fancy title or are not famous. We can think that we are limited in our abilities because of the tasks that we are assigned.

Often, we do not think that the task we are assigned can be an opportunity to bring someone joy or learn new habits and grow. Each person has a task to do which contributes to the overall goal of the company or organization no job is more important than the other for each has a different opportunity to influence people.

We may work as a janitor at a hospital, but we can also brighten a patients’ day by greeting them and having a conversation with them. We may work as a dog walker but, may also at the same time be helping a family not feel stressed about leaving their dog home alone, you may be a gardener but, are truly helping an elderly person keep up with their yard when they cannot. The work we do is not “I am just…” but is our world of influence. Everyday there are several people we encounter at our jobs that we can influence. Our jobs are not just a place of employment but, a place to influence others and grow.

The job we have may not be glorious but, every task that we are given we can influence the people around us and create a better environment.
