You can’t continue to underrate yourself
When God gives you a responsibility, He believes so much in you and all it will take to accomplish that is within you.
You have all it takes to accomplish that responsibility. Stop underrating yourself by asking too many questions if God believe in you or not. God do believe in you. of course is good to know that God gave you responsibility based on your ability. Let us continue with the story above. One fateful day both young men with five talents and one talent met. They greeted and were so happy to see each other.
“I have found out you have being this busy,” he said.
“‘You are right. Our master gave us a responsibility to grow his business,” he said, joyfully. “I guess you must have being doing great.”
“Don’t tell me you waste your time going about the responsibility that ungrateful man who called himself our master gave you,” he mustered.
“I don’t know what you are talking about. You see, he is our master. He trusted me to hand over five of his businesses to me. Now, is my responsibility and is in my power not to disappoint him at his return,” he said, confidently.
“I know that man more than you do, he will never appreciate your effort. Mark my word, you will ever regret trading for him.”
“I will rather work and my master not appreciating me, than not working at all. Moreover, he entrusted so much to me and he will be expecting so much from me. What did you think?”
“I don’t care.” He walked away.
Do not be an enemy to yourself
He was not satisfied with his conversation with the first guy that he decided to visit the other. He meets the young man with two talents, they greet as usual.
“What’s up?” the two talents guy asked.
“Is ok.” he said.
“How are you going about your own responsibility looking forth for our master return?” he smiles.
“That is not my headache for now,” he said, angrily.
“Well, to be honest with you, that is my greatest concern at the moment. I am striving to make out the best of all that was handed to me. Believe me I will give our master a surprise package at his return,” he said, happily.
“Why are you guys so blind to see written word?” he said, seriously. “This our master is a mean man. He will not appreciate you guys effort in growing his business. You get to believe me.”
“I don’t know what else to say. If he appreciates me at his return, fine. If he doesn’t, is ok. But I want to live doing what is right.”
“I see,” he nods and walks away.
You can deceive yourself always, but you can’t deceive people always
Holding on this story so far, what did you think will be of you? How did you go about your responsibility? Did you cherish the fact that you are created to accomplish a responsibility? Embrace responsibility with accountability in view, and be conscious of the trust given to you by whom you serve.
