You are a chosen people. You are a kingdom of priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession. This is so you can show others the goodness of God.
1 Peter 2:9
Have you ever had a job you hated? Yeah, me too. I had little motivation to even get out of bed in the morning other than remembering I had to earn money to pay for such luxuries as food, mortgage, fuel, etc.
What would be your dream job? I used to think I wanted to be conservator at the Smithsonian, partly because I love history and partly because it would allow me to work with some amazing treasures.
When I ask people how their day is going, I usually get responses like "Livin' the dream" or "Lovin' Every Minute Of It" (said with sarcasm). As believers, we are God's own possession! We ARE God's chosen people. We ARE a kingdom of priests. Not everyone wears a clerical collar, but everyone of us should show others the goodness of God because ultimately, that IS our job! Let's face it, if we don't...who will?
